Description: The Coris gaimard can be found throughout almost the entire Indo Pacific. A beautiful Wrasse that exhibits bright red and blue dots along the body with a yellow caudal fin. This is not the most reef safe, as they will eat crustaceans. The tank will need a lid, as they are known to jump. This Wrasse will also appreciate a thick sand bed of finer sand, as they like to bury themselves to sleep or rest. Do not mix with other Coris or large Wrasses.
