Cirrhilabrus johnsoni, commonly known as Johnson’s Wrasse, is a stunning addition to any marine aquarium. Males display vivid colours and graceful swimming patterns, making them a favourite among marine fish enthusiasts.
Temperament and Compatibility: This species is generally peaceful and compatible with a wide range of tank mates. However, males can be territorial towards conspecifics or similar wrasses, so it is best to keep only one male per tank or provide ample space.
Diet: Cirrhilabrus johnsoni thrives on a varied diet consisting of high-quality frozen or live foods such as mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and finely chopped seafood. Supplementing with marine flake or pellet foods designed for carnivorous fish is recommended to ensure balanced nutrition.
Tank Requirements: A minimum tank size of 120 litres (approximately 30 gallons) is advised to provide sufficient swimming space and reduce territorial behaviour. The aquarium should be well-established with plenty of live rock for hiding and foraging.
Water Parameters and Environment: Stable marine conditions with a temperature range of 24-27°C, pH 8.1-8.4, and moderate water flow are ideal. Lighting requirements are standard for reef aquariums and should support any accompanying corals or invertebrates.
Reef Compatibility: Cirrhilabrus johnsoni is considered reef safe and can be kept with corals and invertebrates without issue.
Available in various sizes, this male Cirrhilabrus johnsoni is a premium choice for UK marine aquarium hobbyists seeking a colourful and active wrasse.
