Product Description

The most unique aspect about the Bird Wrasse is its elongated beak which
is used to catch long, skinny prey and hold it captive while breaking
it up into bite-size pieces. The female is brownish black, and the male
is variations of green. For this reason the male is often called the
Green Bird Wrasse, and the female, the Black or Brown Bird Wrasse.A 125 gallon or larger aquarium with large amounts of live rock which
furnish food and hiding places provides a good environment. Because the
Bird Wrasse is a “jumper,” a tight-fitting lid on the tank is
necessary. If a pair of Bird Wrasse are to be included in a tank, the
female should be introduced first.The Bird Wrasse diet should include vitamin enriched frozen mysis
shrimp, vitamin enriched frozen brine shrimp, and other meaty foods
along with a high quality marine flake and marine pellet food.
