The Longfin Fairy Wrasse are beautiful specimen who have colorful ventral and anal fins once they reach adulthood. They typically are not too agressive until they get older and then they may torment similar tankmates who try and occupy nearby spaces. |

The Longfin Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus rubriventralis) is sometimes called a Social Wrasse. It belongs to the family named Labridae. Typically reaching a max size of about 2.9 inches in length, the Longfin Fairy Wrasse is semi-aggressive in nature and hardy in stamina. It's more active during the daytime and less at night, and will hang out across the entire tank. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is low and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Cirrhilabrus rubriventralis should not be housed in a tank less than 30 gallons in size. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 8.1 - 8.4, temperature between 77 - 79 degrees fahrenheit, and a salinity between 1.020 - 1.023. Some of the environmental concerns that you should strive to replicate in your home aquaria to promote succesful acclimation include plenty of hiding places.
