A colorful eye-catcher for your marine aquarium

The Cirrhilabrus solorensis, better known as the Red-eye wrasse, is a true eye-catcher in any saltwater aquarium.

Thanks to its friendly nature and active swimming behavior, this wrasse is a popular choice for both beginner and experienced aquarists.

Why choose the Cirrhilabrus solorensis?

• Reef safe: Suitable for most reef aquariums, does not harm corals or invertebrates.

Care and housing

The Cirrhilabrus solorensis feels most at home in a well-decorated aquarium with ample swimming space and hiding places among the live rock. A sand substrate is recommended, as this wrasse likes to hide in the sand when threatened.

Tips for a healthy red-eye wrasse
