Keeping a Yellow Tail Wrasse

[Mikro]

Has anyone had any luck with long term care for one of these?
I'm cosidering getting one but I read they need live food...

I've had mine since it was very small. I have a red tail also and have had the red tail for over a year and a half . So I bought the yellow about ten months ago and she has grown well.

They are very hard to get a good picture. As you can see.

Great pics thank you!

So do you have to feed live food?

Bradley's specimens are awesome but his results are not the norm. These are difficult wrasses to care for and typically succumb to most owners. Plenty of RC folks have had good results, but I believe if honest, many more would say they have lost theirs.
