So I see you are getting to be the "king of the wrasse"
I would like to know where you get them and what sort of QT and or treatment you do before they go into your tank. If you want to PM me thats fine.
Cheers from up north in Wimberley

My Powder Blue tang. These pictures are not of the best quality, but it does show the health and beauty of one of my favorite fish in my tank.

My Eightline Flasher today. I tried but was not able to come up wiht the "Money Shot" this weekend. Maybe after he is a Terminal for a while. Maybe he will be less timid then.

Got a pretty good picture of this wrasse, which as you all can tell, I am crazy about. I certainly count a lot more than 8 lines on his body.

I got another Eightline Flasher, a very small Juvenile. She is only 1.5 inches, smaller than my last one. She is not much to look at at this time but hope she will reach her potential after sometime in my tank.


Here she is now 5/30/2019



Here is her potential

I just got a Naoko Fairy from a LFS here in Corpus. He was fairly thin with a huge head but eating well and gain weight by the day at the expense of the good water condition in my QT system. Very handsome fish but difficult to take good picture of. Here is the beat picture I got after several days of trying. I am sure he will be outgoing more and bolder once he become more use to the tank condition and captive food. Eating everything, Mysis, flakes and pellets.
I know that he have a reputation of being aggressive, but I have good luck with aggressive wrasse in my large, 320 DT with a lot of wrasses.

Do you have a acclimation box you are using to introduce new wrasses?

Very pretty! Is that the eightline? Also, I don't know how you have the patience to get a good picture of a wrasse...

LOL too funny...it does take a lot of patience to capture a good picture of a wrasse! I am still trying to get a good pictured of my flame. I swear he is really camera shy...lol. Swims out in the open and will track me through the glass but as soon as camera comes out he hides.
