The Yellowhead Wrasse (Halichoeres garnoti) is sometimes called a Neon Wrasse. It belongs to the family named Labridae. Typically reaching a max size of about 7.5 inches in length, the Yellowhead Wrasse is generally passive in nature and sensitive 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 unreported and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Halichoeres garnoti should not be housed in a tank less than 55 gallons in size. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 8.1 - 8.3, 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, a fine substrate, and a stable cave/sheltering ledge.
