Vivid Aquarium has them listed as "difficult, expert only" as well. They need a fine sand bed to bury themselves in at night and a mature tank due to their habit of constantly cuising the tank looking for amphipods and other small inverts to keep. I assume that this accounts for their rating.

Maybe LiveAquaria has their fish mixed up. The Yellow Coris wrasse really looks nothing like the wrasse I believe you are talking about. There is also a yellow-brown wrasse, and a banana wrasse. If you go to saltcorner.com you'll see all the wrasses and hoe the names are similar but pictures are much different. Anyway I have a yellow wrasse (the one I believe you are talking about) and they very simple to take care of.

They are very easy to keep, they just ship poorly.
