Natal Wrasse Aquarium Care Guide

Keeping Natal Wrasse in an aquarium requires the right conditions.

Aquarium Information

• Care level: intermediate
• Temperament: semi-aggressive
• Diet: carnivore
• Minimum tank size: 75 gallons
• Compatibility: Can be kept with other robust, semi-aggressive fish. Avoid keeping with very small or docile species, and only one male Natal Wrasse per tank unless it is very large with ample hiding spots.
• Special requirements: Requires a well-established aquarium with plenty of live rock for hiding and foraging. A sand bed is beneficial as they may bury themselves at night or when startled. Good water quality and stable parameters are crucial.
