Mature Size - 5 inches The Ornate Leopard Wrasse is a strikingly patterned wrasse prized by experienced aquarists for its vibrant coloration and intricate markings. This peaceful reef-safe fish displays brilliant blues, oranges, and spotted patterns that intensify as it matures.

A bottom-dwelling forager, this wrasse spends much of its time sifting through substrate in search of small crustaceans and invertebrates, making it an excellent addition to established reef aquariums with plenty of live rock and sand. Its natural behavior is both entertaining and beneficial to tank ecology. 

Ornate Leopard Wrasses require stable water conditions and a well-established environment with ample hiding spots. They are best suited for experienced hobbyists who can provide the specialized care and environmental stability these sensitive fish demand. Will reach approximately 5 inches at maturity and requires a minimum 50-gallon tank with excellent water quality maintenance.
