Wowzers after all the cold and wet crazy weather the last few days we all need a bit of sunshine in our lives….. and what could be sunnier than a banana wrasse !
The banana wrasse or Halichoeres chrysus in scientific terms is probably one of my favourite marine fish for many reasons, they are in expensive, social - you can keep more than one, small, commonly available, reef safe, peaceful and super easy to keep….. plus they are more yellow than a canary!
If you’re a beginner or an expert there’s always room in your tank for a banana wrasse. They are very easy to keep and will feed on frozen or prepared foods with eagerness. They are also social and a small harem can be happily maintained in the home aquarium with no issues in regards to aggression providing there is only 1 male (males will develop electric lime green patterns on the face and a pale pink tail), they look particularly good schooling with chromis and are extremely active.
The only tanks they won’t do well in are those with no substrate as they need a decent sand bed to sleep in at night. Usually a little shy when first introduced they will often hide for a few days making sporadic appearances, after a few days they will be out and about shinning their golden goodness in your tank. They really are a fantastic addition reef tanks and will bring that splash of bright yellow that always stands out in any tank.

WA button scoly special from tomorrow until next Sunday
Sm/med standard grade $25 each
Large standard grade $40 each
Reds and toxic greens $45 each or 2 for $80
Ultra grade $80 each
Master grade $200 each
These are found in Western Australia and into Northern Territory waters and are one of the most sought after Australian corals by overseas collectors. What they lack in size they make up for with their amazing colours, interesting feeding behaviours and ease of keeping. (Avoid keeping with angels and butterflies as they generally taste like candy to these fish!) They are generally a fairly easy to keep LPS coral and do well in lower light and flow areas not favoured by other species of coral so are great for filling those awkward spots lower in the aquarium. WA button scoly would have to be one of the most colourful corals in the ocean with every shade of green, teal, orange, red, purple and in rare cases golds, yellows, blues and pale pinks. Be warned they tend to be like Pokémon - once you collect one you need to collect more!
