They're exceptionally hardy, easy to feed and readily available, but they're one of the most aggressive members of this genus. See the Sixline Wrasse for a similar but smaller species. You need to select tankmates carefully. It does best when housed with moderately aggressive or larger, passive species, like angelfishes, butterflyfishes, surgeonfishes, puffers and filefishes. However, it is likely to be picked on by overly aggressive fishes, like larger dottybacks, larger hawkfishes, and triggerfishes. Do not keep more than one in the same tank or with other member if the genus. When first added to the aquarium, it will spend lots of time peering from cracks and crevices.
