Nice! I'm still wondering if I can add any more wrasses to my new tank. I got bit by the Wrasse bug back last January after my tank crashed from a short-circuited heater.
But I got itchy, an added a T. lunare. He/she is a cool fish, but I worry about aggression ( I won't be adding Flashers, for sure now!)towards any other wrasses. Matthew |

Painful to look at
I've been hoping for a Kuiter or Vivienae for a while. In the meantime, I'm quite content with my black, ornate, melagris, pygmy, possom and yellow tail tamarin wrasses Quote:
