Pseudojuloides kaleidos is a striking species of wrasse known for its vivid coloration and active swimming behaviour. Available as a pair in various sizes, these fish add dynamic movement and vibrant colour to mature marine aquariums.
Care Level: Moderate to advanced. This species requires stable water parameters and a well-established tank.
Temperament: Generally peaceful but can be territorial towards conspecifics if not kept as a bonded pair. Compatible with other peaceful community fish.
Diet: Carnivorous. Feed a varied diet including high-quality frozen or live foods such as mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, and finely chopped seafood. Supplement with quality marine pellets or flakes to ensure balanced nutrition.
Minimum Tank Size: 120 litres (approximately 30 gallons) recommended to provide ample swimming space and territory.
Lighting and Water Flow: Standard reef lighting and moderate water flow are suitable. Avoid overly strong currents that may stress the fish.
Placement: Mid to lower levels of the aquarium. Provide plenty of live rock for hiding and foraging.
Origin: Not Provided.
Maximum Size: Up to 10 cm (approximately 4 inches).
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with caution. Generally reef safe but may prey on small invertebrates such as copepods and amphipods.
Ensure a secure lid as wrasses are known jumpers. Quarantine new arrivals to prevent disease introduction.
