Description
Cirrhilabrus squirei
The Cirrhilabrus Wrasse is a genus that contains reef safe and exquisitely colored species that are also known for being very hardy. When starting a new aquarium, the Squire's Fairy Wrasse can live in groups, but should be added last since they can be harassed by others. They do best with a varied diet of frozen meaty foods and marine pellets. Nori Seaweed can be offered to add variety to their diet. Feeding them multiple times a day is recommended since they are very active. Beware: They are jumpers, so a covered aquarium is necessary. They have a small adult size of 4”, which is also why they are so desired by hobbyists. Males are more brilliantly colored, which will intensify when courting a female. The Squire's Fairy Wrasse inhabits seaward reefs in the Western Pacific up to 65 meters deep.
