Slingjaw Wrasse Yellow

The Slingjaw Wrasse Yellow, Epibulus insidiator , is a captivating fish species with an elongated jaw they can shoot out to consume their prey whole.  They should be kept in a tank size of 200 gallons minimum as they can grow up to 20 inches in length. Good for fish only setups or reef setups (with caution), make sure to create an environment with ample rocky hiding places and open swimming areas to accommodate their natural behavior. Don't worry if they are hesitant to eat at first; supplement their diet with live glass/grass shrimp, small crabs like fiddler crabs, or small snails. As they grow older, they become more comfortable and confident in their surroundings and will eat  diet of frozen thawed shrimp, squid, and clams. Their color can range from solid yellow to black with a white face and orange and yellow markings.
