Christmas Wrasse

Halichoeres claudia

Reef Safe with Caution

The Christmas Wrasse, scientifically known as Halichoeres claudia, is an eye-catching species featuring vibrant green, red, and orange hues that make it stand out in marine aquariums. This wrasse is active and hardy, often seen swimming energetically through the tank. While generally considered reef safe, it should be monitored, as it may nip at small invertebrates like shrimp and crabs. The Christmas Wrasse thrives in well-established tanks with plenty of swimming space, sandy substrates for burrowing, and numerous hiding spots, making it an attractive and lively addition to reef or fish-only aquariums.

These fish are for saltwater aquariums only.
