Description
The Cutribbon Wrasse is a vibrant saltwater fish from the Indo-Pacific, known for its elongated body and striking blue or green horizontal stripes. It is an active forager, sifting through sand and rocks for small invertebrates and crustaceans. This species requires a mature aquarium with plenty of live rock and a sand bed.
