Lined Tamarin Wrasse (4")

Anampses Lineatus The Lined Tamarin has a black body covered with varying sized white dots.  It requires a 55 gallon or larger aquarium with a 2 inch layer of live sand in which to bury itself. It is a jumper, so a secure lid on the aquarium is required. The tamarin Wrasse may be very difficult to keep in an aquarium due to its feeding habits. It eats very small invertebrates (amphipods) that grow on live rock. The diet should also include live, small feeder shrimps (brine, mysid) and finely chopped marine meats.
