The Red Breasted Wrasse, Cheilinus fasciatus, also known as the Red-Breasted Wrasse, Red Breast Wrasse, Banded Maori Wrasse, Floral Wrasse, Red Breasted Maori Wrasse. This Wrasse is a very large and beautiful fish. They have a mostly tan to brown body with strong white stripes and red markings around its eyes. The Red Breasted Wrasse needs a tank with a lot of live rock,  to take cover if they feel threatened. They are also known to rearrange your rock work and will eat small invertebrates and fish so they are not reef safe. Growing up to 16 inches these guys require a minimum tank size of 180 gallons for them to be comfortable. Feed them 1-2 times per day a diet of meaty saltwater foods such as krill, silversides, clams, and shrimp.

Great fish very beautiful a little shy but gets along with everyone
