What is the cleaner Wrasse?
Labroides Dimidiatias, a common cleaner Wrasse, is small, tropical, reef fish. The name "cleaner" comes from the habit of Wrasse cleaning of parasites, dead leather and other potentially problematic elements of other fish skin. These things are the only food that clearer Wrasse naturally eats. A common WRASSE cleaner shares the Labroides with four other species, all of which are also cleaner fish, but the name "Cleaner Wrasse", without further description, usually concerns the Labroides dimidiatus.
"Blueestreak Cleaner Wrasse", an alternative common name for fish, describes its color. The black stripe runs horizontally along the center of each side of the fish, with white on the underside and live blue above and on the back. Some deep water populations have yellow rather than blue back. They reach a maximum length of 5.5 inches (14 cm) and have narrow bodies.
Common Wrasse lives on cliffs in Indo-Tichoral tropical areas, where it usually occurs at a depth of 3 to 100 feet (about 1 to 30 m), sometimes up to 130 feet (about 40 m). To the cliffWith a more common WRASSE cleaning station, a consistent place where other fish can come and clean from annoying skin problems. Cleaning stations can be established by a pair of adults or a group of adult women with one man. Sometimes youth groups set up a feed station. Fish are protogynous hermaphrodite, which means that if a man disappears from the group, the dominant woman will take her place and become a biological man.
More cleaning circuits are compulsory cleaning agents, which means that they must depend on the cleaning activities for food. They have a very low captivity survival because their limited natural diet means that it is often difficult or impossible to train to take other food. Those who will receive other eating malnutrition because the nutritional profile of their diet in captivity does not match the profile of their natural diet.
Outside meals, it requires cleaner Wrasse the same water temperatures and quality as most inhabitants of the cliffs. Any tank of 20 gallons or larger sizeIt is suitable if it has a lot of rock groups for fish that can hide and find places where you can prepare a cleaning station. It is very quiet with other fish, but can be injured or eaten fish that naturally do not recognize cleaning behavior.
