Description: The Twinspot Wrasse or Clown Coris Wrasse is an awesome fish that is white with black dots and two vibrant orange spots as a juvenile. This fish completely changes color as it grows into an adult. This fish should be moved into a larger tank with a thick established sand bed. The Twinspot Wrasse can be added to a reef tank with caution as they will not bother coral, but will hunt down hermits, snails, and shrimp. A large FOWLR tank is ideal; however, this wrasse grows very large. They will take years to reach full size as they are slow growers. and you will need to upgrade as they mature. The Twinspot wrasse will turn into a dark blue colored fish with a hump on the head as they reach adulthood. Make sure to have a secure lid on the tank as this fish can jump. Best to house this fish with large peaceful, semi-aggressive fish as a juvenile. Can be moved to a more aggressive community as a large adult. Feed a variety of meaty foods along with vitamin enriched pellets.
