Native to the Eastern Indian Ocean, specifically around Indonesia (Sumatra and Mentawai Islands), this fish is a planktivore that adds a dynamic splash of color as it darts between rockwork and open water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMales display the most vibrant colors, featuring a pale pink or whitish body with two distinct, bright red triangular or trapezoidal blotches on the upper front portion of the body, a red-bordered dorsal fin, and a face often tinted with yellow. Females are generally reddish-pink with a small black spot on the upper caudal peduncle. This species is an excellent and highly recommended choice for a stable reef community tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\n\u003ch4\u003eDiet \u0026amp; Compatibility:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Debelius Fairy Wrasse is a Carnivore\/Planktivore that feeds on zooplankton in the wild. In the aquarium, it should be offered a varied diet of meaty foods 2-3 times daily, including high-quality marine flakes and pellets, vitamin-enriched frozen mysis shrimp, frozen brine shrimp, and copepods. Consistent feeding is vital for long-term health and color retention.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHabitat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Like all Fairy Wrasses, this species is active and requires plenty of swimming space over the rockwork, but also numerous crevices and caves within the live rock structure to retreat to when startled and to sleep in at night. They are known jumpers, so a tight-fitting lid or canopy is mandatory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReef Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e It is Completely Reef Safe. It will not harm corals, soft polyps, or most invertebrates. Caution should be exercised with very small ornamental crustaceans like tiny cleaner shrimp (e.g., Sexy Shrimp), which it may predate upon, though this is rare.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e It is Peaceful. It coexists well with other peaceful tankmates. Males can be kept singly or in a harem with multiple females, but generally, only one male Fairy Wrasse (or Flasher Wrasse) should be kept per tank unless the aquarium is very large (100+ gallons) and species are selected from different genetic \"complexes\" to avoid inter-species aggression.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSleeping Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unlike some wrasse species that bury in the sand, Fairy Wrasses form a protective mucus cocoon or wedge themselves into a rock crevice to sleep at night.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\n\u003ch3\u003eQuick Facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScientific Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cirrhilabrus adornatus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Common Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Debelius Fairy Wrasse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOther Common Names:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red-Fin Fairy Wrasse, Koi Fairy Wrasse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Eastern Indian Ocean (Indonesia)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5–3 inches (6–8 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peaceful\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Easy to Intermediate (Requires high water quality, multiple daily feedings, and a secure lid)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carnivore\/Planktivore\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Tank Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 Gallons (Stable, established tank)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReef Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Safe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SLA","offers":[{"title":"Large (1.25-2.25\")","offer_id":67705072812252,"sku":"ndp1791984266069","price":36.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0834\/1422\/1020\/files\/debelius-wrasse_1.webp?v=1791984271","url":"https:\/\/calmhemwear.shop\/products\/debelius-wrasse","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
