Leopard wrasses are less likely to jump. Their natural tendency is to dive for the sand when spooked, not head for the surface.

absolutely , i have a black leopard and hes always hunting through the frags never really heads up top. ive always been told the blacks were the easiest to care for so i started with them. |
Live Aquaria indicates 50 gallons or more for the leopard wrasse. Would the two of you say that is correct?
Honestly, I'm looking at about 22/23 gallons (36x12x12) for my little frag/growout tank. Edit: It would wind up plumbed into a much larger system, but that wouldn't happen until the spring at the earliest. |

you could get away with less for a good while but i think they will need bigger than a 50g once they grow to size. my black leopard is maybe 1-2" now if not smaller but he will grow pretty quick and need some more swimming room. |
for a frag tank i wouldnt really think long term for the fish as their homes , i see them their to do a job once they outgrow they should be rehomed to something larger....kinda like a retirement plan lol

Depends. I've seen the smaller ones (black) stay happy in small tanks for a very long time where my potter's grows like a mofo and I might have to rescape my 50 gallon to give him more swimming volume.
