Sharpnosed Possum Wrasse

The Sharpnosed Possum Wrasse is a small fish found in tropical Indo-Pacific. Because of its small size, it is ideal for a small tank.

The males are 3 1/8 in., the females slightly smaller. The males are more colorful than the females. These fish do not not do well in a mixed aquarium with aggressive fish like Damsels and Dottybacks. Minimum tank size is 10 gal. Feed a varied diet consisting of large chunks of meaty foods, such as finely chopped krill, raw table shrimp, squid, clam and mussel. These fish are reclusive, and spend most of their time hiding out in the rocks. One male can be kept with a group of females.
