The Crescent Tail Fairy Wrasse, Cirrhilabrus lunatus, or crescent tail fairy wrasse is an elegant fish with a crescent tailed moniker. An adult wrasse displays a variable coloration and a rich tangerine. A vibrant spectrum of green, purple, and underlying orange is a common sight as you take a glance at this fairy wrasse. 

They will best thrive in a well-established tank, with live rocks cleverly arranged to provide hiding places, as the Crescent Tail Fairy Wrasse can become shy and may need to take refuge as needed. A sandy substrate is also recommended, as they will burrow themselves into the sand at night when sleeping. They are also known for jumping, so it is suggested to have a tightly fitting lid, or top on your tank to prevent escape.


This is a great Crescent Tail Fairy Wrasse who showed up healthy and happy. He was shy at first in my quarantine tank but after moving him over to the main tank he has been quite the showman. Beautiful fish to add to a reef tank.
