They are peaceful and suited to mixed reef tanks, but have a reputation for being tricky to acclimate. Many refuse dry food initially and need a well-established tank with live microfauna (copepods, amphipods). They bury in the sand at night or when stressed, so a deep, fine sand bed is essential. May be harassed by aggressive tankmates, especially larger wrasses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSales Blurb:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA true gem for peaceful reef tanks, the Peacock Wrasse dazzles with its ornate patterning and gentle nature. Best added to mature systems with a healthy sand bed, this wrasse rewards patient aquarists with graceful movement and constant foraging. A must for pod-rich reef tanks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"The Happy Reef","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52478960763216,"sku":"981037M","price":80.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/9552\/0848\/files\/original_47171c4c-0d0b-4978-845a-420bf79283e6.jpg?v=1766346344","url":"https:\/\/www.thehappyreef.com\/products\/peacock-wrasse-male","provider":"The Happy Reef","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
