Red Tail Wrasse

The Redtail Tamarin Wrasse, also known as Redtailed Wrasse, Redtail Hawaiian Wrasse, or Psychedelic Wrasse (males), has a black body covered with varying sized white dots. The tail is white with a red band at the end. The male has a more colorful head with unique facial markings which differ from the females. When courting, the male will display an increased color intensity.

The Redtail Tamarin Wrasse may be very difficult to adjust to new surroundings, and should be offered a variety of enriched meaty foods such as frozen Mysis shrimp and frozen brine shrimp.
