Cleaner wrasse

[Carterfish]

I’m kinda looking into maybe acquiring one of these. Just looking for tips and information on them. Also would like to know if they are even worth I️t. I️ wouldn’t really necessarily be adding it for parasite control but more for its personality and color(I️ like the little blue streak) Anyway do they cause too much stress in a tank by annoying the inhabitants too much or do they stop picking for parasites at some point? Any info would be welcomed.

Also is there any small wrasses that would be a comparison to the cleaner wrasse?

I have had mine for around 5 years now. I actually think they make a tank more peaceful. It still follows fish around and picks at them but they don't seem to mind.

While there are exceptions, I find that they do better in larger tanks, 150g+, with a few larger fish to act as clients. Find one that is eating.
