The Seafighter Dwarf Parrot is also known as the Blue and
Red Fairy Wrasse or Social Wrasse. This species varies in coloration
considerably but is usually bright red/orange coloration with a pale body and
scarlet ventral and anal fins. More often than not this species will have a
pale underside. Please expect variations in coloration with these fish, as the
intensity of coloration and patterns vary with the location in their natural
habitat, and their mood.

The Seafighter Dwarf Parrot is an ideal fish for the reef
aquarium adding both bright coloration and activity to these aquariums. Wrasse
of the genus Cirrhilabrus mix well together if they are introduced
simultaneously to the tank, and are one of the best groups of fish for a reef
tank setting.

The Seafighter Dwarf Parrot diet should include vitamin
enriched frozen mysis shrimp, vitamin enriched frozen brine shrimp, and other
meaty foods along with a high quality marine flake and marine pellet food.
