Cirrhilabrus exquisitus
Origin: Indo-Pacific
Cirrhilabrus exquisitus, the Exquisite Fairy Wrasse, is a stunningly beautiful wrasse with complex red, pink, blue, and green patterning that varies between geographic populations. Males display intense colour during courtship 'flashing' behaviour. Completely reef safe and peaceful, it spends time in open water displaying and foraging for zooplankton. Best kept as one male with several females in a larger reef. A prized addition for any mature reef tank.
Harem of 1 male + 2–4 females ideal. Temperature standard reef. Secure lid — active jumper. Feed frozen mysis, brine shrimp, and small pellets. Reef safe with all corals and invertebrates. Provide open swimming space.
