Cirrhilabrus aquamarinus
The Red Eye Solor Fairy Wrasse is a stunning reef-safe species prized for its shimmering blue-green hues and graceful swimming behavior, making it a captivating addition to any saltwater aquarium. Males are typically larger and more colorful than their female counterparts. These wrasses thrive in aquariums with ample rockwork that offers hiding spots such as caves and crevices. Unlike many wrasses, they do not bury themselves in the sand at night. Instead, they either wedge into rock crevices or form a mucus cocoon—similar to parrotfish—for protection while sleeping. The cocoon remnants do not affect water quality or aquarium inhabitants. A tight-fitting lid is recommended, as they may jump. Peaceful and reef-safe, Red Eye Solor Fairy Wrasse are excellent additions to community aquariums. As carnivores, they require a varied diet of enriched meaty foods—like mysis shrimp, squid, clams, fish, or specialized carnivore preparations—fed at least twice daily. They can grow up to 3.5 inches and need a minimum aquarium size of 50 gallons. Native to Indonesia particularly around Sulawesi, typically near coral rich reef slopes at depths of up to 200 feet.
