red coris wrasse

[ml708]

anyone kept these before? are they aggressive towards other fish, in particular smaller ones?

I am keeping one.

Not really aggressive from the specimen I have. Most of the time just keep to itself like an autis fish.

I see, how big is yours? They have very big teeth!

It is around 5 inch size.

It eats prawn with the shell, just like my trigger fish.

One funny thing, sometimes when it is busy searching for critters underneath rocks, sometimes when it feels present of certain fish threaten it's snack, it would try to chase away from that area (but not to the point of chasing all the way like tangs with new tangs). Once it tried to chase away my trigger fish but my trigger counter back as if saying "hey, who are you, dare to chase me??" and the coris was like "oppps" and submit to the trigger.
