Wanted: Yellow Coris Wrasse Info
So I may... MAY... add a Yellow Coris Wrasse to my tank. Primarily for preventative measures against flatworms or pyramid snails.
All the info I have seen says they "may not be reef safe". Can anyone shed light on this? I do not want to add another trouble fish to my system and have to rip my tank apart to get him out. Again. Thanks

I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Hey Patrick, if you want one let me know. I have one that you can have, just have to catch it, but I have a trap. Should be easy.

The few that I've had have always been model citizens and they did take care of the flatworms that appeared in the tank. I really like these fish. Like mentioned, early to sleep. You'll need a sandbed too otherwise they will be out of sorts (they'll actually try to bury themselves in the glass or rock if there's no sand, well you can guess how that's going to end). Anyhow the one thing to be wary of is that they are jumpers, and don't underestimate what they are capable of escaping..

Great little fish. Mine would eat flatworms, very small snails, bristle worms, mysis, and pellet food. It jumped out of a 50gal once and landed in the sump (I got lucky). Burried itself in the sand each night and whenever it got scared.
