Genus

Common name: Lubbock's Fairy Wrasse

Scientific name: Lubbockichthys

The genus Lubbockichthys consists of small, colorful wrasses known for their vibrant hues and dynamic behavior. These fish are popular in the reefkeeping hobby for their ability to adapt to aquarium life and their peaceful nature. They are often found darting around the reef, picking off small invertebrates and zooplankton. Their diet in captivity should include a variety of meaty foods and they may also accept high-quality dry foods. They are generally reef-safe but may nip at small-polyped stony corals and clam mantles.
