Thanks alot guys! The TOTM is a bit of a shocker for me. I always thought my tank wasnt "big budget" or "high tech" enough....Did that make sense?

Speaking of my love for wrasses My "holy grail" fish has always been a Lineatus wrasse. Kevin told me last week that lineatus wrasses were on one of our suppliers lists and asked me if he should bring one in. I was like.....YA! He arrived yesterday afternoon and after his acclimation went in to the display. I fed the tank an hour or so later and he ate!!! I am soooo jazzed. He is a little bigger than perhaps I would have chosen but crap....its a lineatus! Once again sorry for the poor picture quality...best I could do so far.

Beautiful fish, I wish my tank could hold one of them without the risk of one of my other fish killing it.

I think that's my holy grail fish too. One day ... I have some major saving up to do. In the meantime you might have to put up with me coming over to visit and drool at the sight of yours! Congrats, hope he does well and .. I can't remember, do you have a cover over your tank or a skirt? Wrasses being jumpers and all ..

Tony you are welcome to come and check it out anytime man. A lineatus may be easier to save for than you think. If you want, pm me and I can give you an idea of what we are charging for them. No cover yet.
