African Pencil Wrasse Pseudojuloides polackorum

Pseudojuloides polackorum is the newest species of pencil wrasse from South Africaand with it’s stunning colouration it’s not hard to see why this reef safe wrasse is extremely popular, they are an absolute showstopper! Only rarely available, and always in high demand these will add a splash of colour and movement to any reef aquarium. They are generally 3” to 4”. Maximum size is around 4”.

Reef safe. As with many types of wrasse it may bury in the sand and hide when moved to a new aquarium. Most wrasses are out and about within a day or two, but, some take 3 weeks or more to appear. Don’t worry they will be coming out and feeding at night. We recommend feeding a minimum of twice per day on suitable frozen food. Some small reef fish can jump from an open topped aquarium, we recommend using a tight fitting lid with no gaps.
