Pink Streaked Wrasse

Pink-Streaked Wrasse (Pseudocheilinops ataenia) is a peaceful, colorful reef-safe species that adds subtle elegance and constant motion to any aquarium. It maxes out at around 2.5 inches, making it ideal even for smaller tanks (20+ gallons preferred for stability), and features soft pink/orange body tones with yellow streaks, a blue-gray gill-cover, and pink lips. Best kept in aquariums with plenty of live rock for hiding, a fine sand or substrate, stable water parameters (salinity ~1.020-1.025; temp ~72-78°F; pH ~8.1-8.4), and a cover since wrasses are jumpers. Diet should be meaty: small crustaceans, frozen mysis/brine shrimp, copepods, flakes/pellets when acclimated.

International Aquatics Quarantine & Guarantee: All fish are checked by marine vets, given a formalin bath, and held for 14 days in copper-treated systems. We feed Selcon-soaked food with Kanaplex and Metroplex during quarantine. Unless marked, all livestock comes with our 15-Day Guarantee. You will receive a video of your fish eating before shipment. On request, we also send photos/videos after arrival at IA.

Several species will be import-to-order and may take anywhere from 3-10 business days to secure. Once your fish is secured, you will be notified, and the quarantine process will then begin.
