I haven't got a pic, but a 6 line is a delightful reef fish.

I have a lime green wrasse that does a great job at keeping things clean. I will hunt for a pic.

6 lines are bullies and will limit the other kinds of wrasses you can have. If I could get mine out I would. I would get some fairy or flasher wrasses if I could. The Laboute is a beautiful fish, I'm very jealous

My flame and scotts fairy wrasse On my list are the Loboutes, lineatus, pink margin and yellow coris (canary). I will be getting two more and have not decided. I had a pink already that escaped.. was a great fish. Of the fish I have seen in person, the lineatus is the prettiest. THe second is my scotts The laboutes is awesome looking and definately different than any fish, really looks like it was painted I am waiting to see what my flame is like full grown, it has steadily been coloring up. The pink was very pretty too, but faded some while I had it.

I keep a radiant wrasse in my fuge to eat flat worms, but they are also reef safe. Sorry the pic's a bit fuzzy, he's hard to get a shot of.

Ignore the bubble algae, that is a project for the summer.

Thanks seagirl, it is a Velvet Multicolor Wrasse ( Cirrhilabrus luteovittatus ). I've had it for about 4 months now. Really love it, has a great personality, likes to "show off" anytime someone is near the tank, the blue on the bottom gets really intense. And whenever I am doing stuff in the tank it will follow my hand around, expecting me to either feed it or to move something on the sandbed so it can get to the worms.
