Just going to put this out there, Yellow CORIS wrasses aren’t in the genus Coris, they are instead Halichoeres chrysus. Certainly add a bold yellow to the tank, but they aren’t 100% reefsafe and have a chance of going after your smaller inverts.
Never had an issue with this guy and have had 3 of 12 years- darn jumpers
Yeah, wrasses and jumping is a nightmare, I have 5 and I can’t say I’ve not had one try jump. I now have 6 fish (5 are wrasses) in my 4’ tank that are escape artists, the newest one is a flashing tilefish… in my nano I had my naoko try jump whilst I was cleaning the glass
They really are! I’m glad tangs aren’t as good of an escape artist as they are.
I love these yellow wrasses too. have one in the 140 which is going in the 300 along with my leopard wrasse. They really don't bother my cleaner shrimp or hermit crabs...
I’ve heard some can but I think they gain the reputation from the larger halis (Jades, zigzags ect..)
I love all three of the mimic tang species, my favourite is chronixis and if I had room and wasn’t already planning for one of the 4 powder tangs (7 if you include their hybrids) I’d get a juvenile chronixisI also love the yellow tang, but prices are crazy high for a pale 1 to 1 1/2 inch juvenile tang.
I instead picked up a mimic tang juvenile, nice yellow color until they change to adult coloration , even more beautiful. Also called a chocolate Tang
