Vermiculite Wrasse

The Blue Star Leopard Wrasse (Marcropharyngodon bipartitus) with its green patterned body is one of many colorful reef safe wrasses. They inhabit lagoons and sheltered reefs with mixed sand, debris, and coral. They are known to prey upon unwanted invertebrate pests in the aquarium. Being timid fish, it is advised to add them to a established aquarium with a fine sandbed so they can bury themselves when they feel the need to seek shelter.
