Leopard wrasse

[aiden.]

Do I need to have two leopard wrasses in a tank

 

[Heather Kastory]

No, the opposite is recommended unless you have a very large tank then two can be kept with only 1 male. Even then you need to be careful how you introduce then to tank in regards to timing.

No, you don't need more than one leopard wrasse they do just fine being kept singly.

They can be jumpers so you do need a lid and some sand for them to sleep in.

They can hide in the sand for a few days

Do you have pods in the system for it to snack on?

 

[aiden.]

Will it eat this or does it have to be pods

No. They do best in 1 or trio

This. Mine eats flakes no problem but loves mysis shrimp when served.

Right now your wrasse is MIA during feedings: If you have live pods in your system there will be food for it to snack on when your not around. Plus it's good to give your fishes good gut bacteria which comes from live food.

@Paul B just did a video that explains about live food gut bacteria. Frozen food is good to feed…I feed it everyday…but they also get live food every day

Mine eats everything. I think he actually prefers mysis and brine over pods.

That's an interesting square block anthias on the package. My Vivien picks at the rocks all day. A member here sells pods and phyto. I used those to supercharge my reef.
