Paracheilinus carpenteri – Carpenter's wrasse juvenile

Paracheilinus carpenteri – Carpenter's wrasse (juvenile)
Even as juveniles, Carpenter's wrasse displays vibrant, clear markings and active, inquisitive behavior. It swims gracefully over the reef structure, bringing movement and lightness to the aquarium. As it matures, it develops its typical... iridescent play of colors with red and blue fin accents, which makes it a real eye-catcher.

It is ideally suited for peaceful reef aquariums with ample swimming space and a structured design using reef rock. Calm, non-dominant tank mates encourage its natural and easily observable behavior.

Care & Maintenance:
• For well-established, calm reef tanks
• Free swimming space + hiding places
• Peaceful pool partners
• Reliably eats frozen food, later also dry food

Size:
Juvenile approx. 3–5 cm
Adult size approx. 7–8 cm

A active, elegant reef inhabitant with great potential for color development – ​​perfect for aquarists who appreciate movement and lightness in the tank.
