Pearl wrasse is a small bright fish up to 13 centimeters long. It lives on shallow coral reefs in the warm seas of the Indian and Pacific Oceans.
Pearl wrasse differs from other wrasses with an abundance of light spots on the body and a pinkish belly. It helps maintain reef health by eating small animals that can damage corals.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
