Default Free: 4" Five Strip/Rainbow wrasse (SE Calgary)

My five stripe wrasse has decided that he no longer wishes to reside with my parrot fish .. So he has been sumped and is looking for a new home.

Beware: He is NOT reef safe. He will not eat your corals but will likely devour any inverts that you may cherish. And as I have recently discovered, he may not like any other torpedo like fish.

Free to a good home.

Sorry, he is way to fast for me to photograph but he looks like this:

He would be perfect in a FOWLR so long as you don't plan to add anymore torpedo shaped fish of a similar size as he seems to hate them. He didn't seem to bother smaller wrasses like the canary wrasse, mystery wrasse or melanarus wrasse that was in there too. He just happens to hate the similar sized and shaped parrot fish that I have. If you already have aggressive torpedo shaped fish he will fit right in! He was in my FOWLR Reef and never touched any of my corals (I've got a bunch of sps and lps corals in there).

In my FOWLR I have a Picasso Trigger, Yellow Damsel, Bluefin Damsel, Fox Face Lo, Maroon Clown and a Scribbled Rabbit. Have been thinking of moving the Fox Face back to my 8' tank. Don't plain on adding anything of similar shape as any other fish in there, would like to keep them all different.

He's very cool. But I'm pretty sure my lunare and grouper would not approve. They team up and kill other torpedo shaped fish who look like them

Grizz I think he'd fit in well in your tank.

He will like your Picasso trigger! He seems to like mine. They swim and sleep together (I'm serious!). Anyway, say the word and he is yours, seeing as how no one else seems to want him

he is a very pretty fish but I am more attached to my parrot fish at the moment.
