Magma Fairy Wrasse

Transform Your Tank with Living Lava in Motion

Looking for a truly rare reef centerpiece? The Magma Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus shutmani) is one of the most coveted deep-reef species in the hobby — a blazing palette of crimson, orange, and molten gold that commands attention the moment it enters the water column. Collected from restricted depths in the Indo-Pacific, this species surfaces in the trade infrequently, making every availability a genuine event. If you've been searching to buy a Magma Fairy Wrasse online from a source you can trust, this is your moment.

Reaching up to 3.5 inches at full maturity, this mid-water swimmer is active, bold, and endlessly engaging — darting through rockwork and open space with equal confidence. Males in particular develop increasingly dramatic coloration as they mature, rewarding patient aquarists with a display that intensifies over time. Peaceful toward most tankmates and a strong, consistent eater, it's an ideal exotic marine species for any established reef tank or saltwater aquarium with compatible inhabitants.

WHY BUY FROM THE CORAL BOUTIQUE?

Every Magma Fairy Wrasse at The Coral Boutique is ethically sourced, fully quarantined, and conditioned on a varied diet before it ever ships — so you're receiving a stable, eating specimen ready to thrive in your marine aquarium from day one.

Our fish are selected with appearance, behavior, and feeding response in mind before being listed. We aim to offer healthy, alert specimens for established saltwater systems.

Please confirm this fish is compatible with your tank size, current livestock, temperament needs, and reef goals before ordering. If you are unsure, contact us before checkout and we’ll help you choose responsibly.

Eligible fish orders ship Monday through Thursday via FedEx Priority Overnight. Orders placed by 2 PM EST may ship same day when weather and availability allow.

Fish orders over $599 qualify for free shipping. Coral orders over $399 qualify for free shipping. Free same-day Miami pickup is available at 46 NW 36th St and is usually ready in 1–2 hours.

Eligible livestock orders are covered by our Live Arrival Guarantee. Photograph the animal in its sealed bag before you open anything, then email that photo with your order number within two hours of delivery. Our team reviews every claim and gets you an answer within one business day. Failed delivery attempts, refused packages, or missed delivery windows may void coverage.

Acclimate fish carefully and introduce them into a stable, established saltwater aquarium. Match temperature and salinity slowly, keep lights low during introduction, and monitor behavior closely after release.

We photograph our fish under balanced, aquarium-safe lighting to accurately represent their true coloration and patterning. Our goal is to show how each fish will appear in a home reef or marine setup—not under overly blue or altered lighting.

Because fish are active and constantly moving, images are representative of the species and quality you can expect. Every fish is carefully selected for health, coloration, and temperament before shipping.
