The Banana Wrasse is also known as the Yellow-brown Wrasse, Sunset Wrasse, or Yellow Wrasse; as an adult, it takes on a yellow appearance if female, and a blue appearance if male; both sexes have facial markings in green and fine vertical striping along the body, and the fins are very colorfully marked. It should reside in a 125 gallon or larger aquarium, with other aggressive tankmates such as Tangs, Puffers, small Triggers, and Angels; they are active fish and require plenty of rocks for hiding and a tight-fitting lid; it will become territorial and harass any new additions to the community, therefore it should be added last to the tank; it may be kept with a mate if the aquarium is 125 gallons or larger; it may eat mantis shrimp and bristleworms, but does not eat corals or live plants; its diet should include vitamin enriched frozen mysis shrimp, vitamin enriched frozen brine shrimp, and other meaty foods along with high-quality marine flake and marine pellet food.
