About

Cirrhilabrus lubbocki — Lubbock's fairy wrasse — is a popular, affordable fairy wrasse with vivid yellow and red male colouration. Fairy wrasses are among the most reef-compatible and peaceful wrasse genera. They swim actively in mid-water and are safe with corals and most invertebrates. Males will display to each other and to females, erecting brilliant colours for brief seconds. A harem of one male to several females is natural and creates frequent display behaviour.

Care Guide

Light: any. Flow: moderate. TIGHT LID (jumper). Keep 1 male with 2–4 females. Feed: mysis, enriched brine, live copepods. Reef-safe and peaceful.
