With the three feedings is it ok if I do one in the morning around 7, one at around 4:30 and one at maybe 8:00. These are probably the only times I can do will they be spaced out enough? Also will the wrasse be fine with two feedings because it will be the only pest control fish so it will be hunting pest all day?

Idk. That's why I suggested looking at other sources that talk about the care this fish needs.

That second pic is the banana wrasse, aka silver belly that they mention -- different fish.

took forever to load. Do you know if the feeding schedule will be fine?

sorry

just figured out how deep sandbed that is in cm. a lot of people say that two inches is fine? I probably don't want it much more than that though as it would mean fish cant get under the big plate which would and would cover the other plate.

So I will buy another bag of finer sand for the wrasse and hopefully that we be enough!

Yes I know!

A lot of people have said they have even had success keeping them in a 1'' sandbed! I think I will aim for a nearly 3'' at the back and move so it doesn't cover the lower plate on the right near the front. Hopefully this will be enough. Thanks for the advice!

Here's a thread that was just started about the YCW... Thread 'Question For Yellow Coris Wrass Owners' https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/question-for-yellow-coris-wrass-owners.901358/

Also I have a lot of air bubbles in my sandbed after adding a bit more a few days ago. So whenever my flipper algae scraper hits the sand air bubbles come up. Is this fine?
