Checkerboard Wrasse (Juv)

Description

The Checkerboard Wrasse (Juv) (Halichoeres hortulanus) is an active, inquisitive wrasse that patrols the rockwork for pests and leftover food. Most wrasses are reef‑safe with caution and appreciate plenty of rockwork and sand to rest.

Provide a secure, covered aquarium—wrasses are known jumpers. Many species bury in sand at night; a soft substrate is recommended. Compatible with a wide range of peaceful to semi‑aggressive tankmates.

Feed a protein‑rich diet of mysis shrimp, finely chopped seafood, and quality pellets. Checkerboard Wrasse (Juv), Marine Fish available at the best price to buy now at Kraken Corals & Aquatics.
