cirrhilabrus rubrisquamis

Easy The Red Velvet Wrasse is easy to care for. Place this fish in a tank of at least 500 liter to make it at home. Keep your salinity within 1.022-1.027 (at 25°C) and temperature between 23-28°C. The Red Velvet Wrasse likes to eat artemia, big frozen food, cyclops, krill, lobstereggs, mysis, worms and zooplankton.

No corals for the Red Velvet Wrasse. Your carefully maintained corals should be safe with this fish in your tank, because it is considered reefsafe.

This fish is peaceful, which means it probably won't attack other fishes. Alas, a lot of peaceful fish do get easily harassed by other, bigger and more aggressive fish. Keep this in mind when mixing different types of fish. Having a lot of hiding places might help in the process.
