A very inquisitive fish. Becoming one of my favorite fish in the tank.

Hand down my wrasses ( lubbocks, yellow 4 spot and ornate ) are by far my favorite fish . At least once a week i hear a splash , thud as my lubbocks bounces off the plexi top , so open top is a definite no go.

Yes, and once bitten, it causes the victim to trade Visa cards and cash for colourful little fish while in a zombie-like state. Victims stand helplessly in front of LFS tanks, drooling and mumbling "wrasse, wrasse" (instead of "brains, brains"). Its highly contagious. I recommend you get yourself innoculated, thus leaving more wrasses for ME!!!!

Mine actually bit me today, most of the time swims by my hand or rubs against my fingers, very curious, but I had my back turned moving something in the corner of the tank and he bit the back of my arm. First fish bite
Scared me! Hoping to grab a mystery wrasse tomorrow!! Hear it now...."wrasse, wrasse"

If you get a chance stop in at the store and ask Shaun or Chris to show you the purple wrasse in with the Kuiter's. He looks almost identical to yours. He came in as a temeniki but I'm not so sure if it is or not. I've been trying to get a pic but he's impossible to photograph.
