The Bicolour Cleaner Wrasse is a striking variation of the classic cleaner, featuring a bold yellow front half that transitions into a deep purple or blue toward the tail. Like its relatives, it is a dedicated parasite eater that will actively seek out "clients" within the aquarium. They are very active and require plenty of swimming room. Because they rely heavily on constant grazing, they should only be added to established systems with a healthy fish population.
