Maximum Length	3 inches
Origin	Indo-Pacific reefs
Minimum Tank Size	20 gallons
Reef Compatibility	Yes — completely reef safe

Behavior

The Yellow-Banded Possum Wrasse is a shy, peaceful nano wrasse that hides among rockwork and caves, darting out to forage. It is completely reef safe and ideal for smaller or peaceful systems where bolder fish will not bully it.

Diet & Feeding

Carnivore. Feeds on tiny crustaceans and zooplankton; offer mysis, copepods, and finely chopped foods a few times daily.

Cautions

Very small and secretive — easily outcompeted or intimidated by aggressive tank mates. Provide plenty of rockwork. A tight lid is wise; wrasses jump. Reef safe.
