Paracheilinus filamentosus
Filamented Flasher Wrasse, are popular among aquarists for its vivid colors, and active swimming behavior, making it a striking addition to reef aquariums. Known for its peaceful temperament, this wrasse is well-suited for reef environments, though males may become territorial toward other males. To maintain harmony, it's ideal to house a single male with multiple females. Be sure to offer an aquarium with a tight-fitting lid as they tend to jump. Although the coloration of this species will depend on its age, collection area and male phase they will generally exhibit vibrant reds, blues, and yellows with most males having the brightest coloration. Filamented Flasher Wrasses are particularly stunning when males flash their colors during courtship displays. As carnivores, Filamented Flasher Wrasses thrive on a varied diet that includes small meaty foods, such as frozen mysis and brine shrimp, along with high-quality pellet or flake foods designed for carnivores. Their active nature benefits from multiple feedings per day, ensuring they maintain their energy levels and vibrant coloration. Growing up to 3-1/2 inches, these wrasses do best in aquariums of at least 50 gallons, providing plenty of swimming space. In their natural habitat across the Indo-Pacific, they inhabit rubble channels, lagoons and sloped reefs, often at depths of up to 85 feet, where it feeds on zooplankton.
