Small yellow tang

Yellow coris wrasse has the striking color of a Yellow tang, interesting behavior as it prowls the rock work and burrows in the sand to sleep, and will stay the right size for e tank too. Other wrasses are attractive as well but if you like the yellow they are hardy and inexpensive.

Would this fish eat my crabs and shrimp?

the yellow wrasse is a good fish to have in any tank. They are reef save, they stir up the sand when they sleep/ they eat small pest that live in the tank. The yellow wrasses is small and it will usually leave your inverters alone. tbey are very good fish to keep in a small tank.

Make sure to have a lid on your tank wrasses will jump

Never bothered any of my desirable inverts, But cleared out some zoa-eating nudibranch that snuck in on something-sk they’re great in my book! Most local stores with saltwater usually have them in stock-they are not hard to find.

Making some call in bit...
I thought about it before. I’ll give it a try and I’ll be checking the shrimp !!! just to make sure.
Thanks for the information.

I had Skunk and fire shrimp with it before, no problem. Not sure about peppermint but I’d think they’d be ok

I just got a yellow Cory wrasse yesterday and I only saw it for a few minutes and today I came from work and I don’t see it anywhere

 

[ericrodriguez]

Is this normal?

 

[diana a]

If it isn’t on the floor because you had the tank covered, it’s hiding in the sand. It’s normal for it to hide when it’s frightened or sleeping

 

[ericrodriguez]

I put the cover yesterday... Should I try to take it out of the sand?

 

[brokereefer]

Better not to take them out of the sand. It freaks them out and stresses them further. They normally get more bold and on schedule within a few days.

I bought a coris a few years back. Assumed it died from transfer even though acclimated.
Two weeks later it showed its face. Give it time, if you don't see it in a month, consider thinking about writing it off, but don't be suprised if it shows up later.

If you're looking for small yellow tangs, ACC has a few captive bred ones about the size of a thumb.

Just got one regular one at Reefco like 2 1/2 inches I was looking for the captive bred like crazy but couldn’t find it anywhere

If it doesn't show in a week or two just tape a plastic fork to the end of a stick, put on dramatic evil music and start stabbing the sand while laugh maniacally.
He'll probably stay above the sand at that point. Thats how fish learn.
