Description
Xenojulis margaritacea
Wrasses in this genus are generally known for being reef safe with caution as they will not bother with sessile invertebrates, however, they will snack on shrimp and crabs. The Gold Nugget Wrasse prefers a well-established aquarium with plenty of hiding places and sandy substrate. This species will seek shelter under the sand to sleep and when frightened. 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. Adults will grow to be about 5 inches and will need an aquarium of about 50 gallons. The Gold Nugget Wrasse inhabits coral rich areas in shallow waters within the Western Pacific up to 10 meters deep.
