Adult males display a vibrant blue head accented by striking green and turquoise tones across the body, while females and juveniles feature a beautiful combination of yellow and blue. Their energetic personality and bold appearance make them a standout addition to larger saltwater aquariums.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNative to the tropical reefs of the Caribbean and western Atlantic, the Bluehead Wrasse spends its days cruising the rockwork in search of small crustaceans and other meaty foods. This species is highly active and appreciates an aquarium with plenty of open swimming space along with live rock for shelter and nighttime resting spots. While generally peaceful toward dissimilar fish, it can become territorial with other wrasses or similarly shaped species, especially in smaller aquariums.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bluehead Wrasse is considered reef safe with caution. It typically ignores corals but may prey on very small ornamental shrimp, feather dusters, tiny crabs, and other delicate invertebrates. Hardy and adaptable, this species readily accepts frozen mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, finely chopped seafood, and high-quality pellets once acclimated. Its hardiness and outgoing nature make it an excellent choice for hobbyists looking to add activity and vibrant color to a well-established marine aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuick Facts:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Easy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Semi-Aggressive\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~10 inches\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Tank Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 125 gallons\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carnivore (meaty frozen and prepared foods)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReef Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e With Caution\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're looking for a bold, energetic, and brilliantly colored fish that will bring constant movement and personality to your aquarium, the Bluehead Wrasse is an outstanding choice for larger saltwater systems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Foxy Saltwater Tropicals","offers":[{"title":"juvenile","offer_id":53859651813690,"sku":null,"price":9.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"large","offer_id":53859651846458,"sku":null,"price":24.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/8873\/0426\/files\/blueheadwrasse_1.png?v=1683307263","url":"https:\/\/www.mysaltwaterfishstore.com\/products\/blue-head-wrasse","provider":"Foxy Saltwater Tropicals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
