What's not to love about the Six Line Wrasse, a.k.a. Pajama Wrasse or Japanese Wrasse? This wonderful little fish is a tremendous addition to any fish tank and is reef safe. The Six Line Wrasse is a small wrasse which has a blue body with six orange horizontal stripes racing from head to tail. Their tail fins are green in color with a small "false eye" at the base. These exquisite little fish are very active and have lots of curiosity as they swim from place to place -- then hover in place. These fish are very easy to care for and are also beneficial for their interest in eating nuisance bristle worms and flat worms.The Wrasse family of fish is a large group of usually very colorful free swimming fish. These fish are powerful swimmers using their pectoral fins to propel them through the water. Wrasses usually have powerful jaws that enable them to crush their food, which includes worms. These fish usually have long continuous dorsal fins and are found in groups in the wild. The Wrasses are one of the few fish that will bury themselves in the sand when sleeping or during flight.
