I love that orange back wrasse. Once I've moved house and got my tank sorted I am going on a wrasse finding mission.

Thanks, just thanks...you have to go and post pics of these cool wrasses and I think, damn, those are nice....I haven't added anything to my tanks in months, and think some wrasses sure would be great additions....added 2!

They will be a great addition to your tank once they are done qt, they are gorgeous!!! Make sure your tanks are covered as eventually they WILL jump!!

+1. With wrasses it's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when. Heck, any fish can jump out of a tank if it really wanted to. I know of tanks that have had Tangs and large Angelfish jump out of them.

I finally covered mine, I've had clowns, wrasses, hogfish and my trigger jump. Others have simply just vanished..., missing 2 anthias and a blenny.

+1 to covering fish tanks specially if wrasses are present.

I finally covered my tank a few weeks ago and could not be happier since the boogers jump on regular basis and I only have 3 wrasses (fairy solar, carpenters and cleaner)


Good looking fish you got there Greg.

Unfortunately, we're still at 3 - the teeny little Yellow Coris didn't make it
I'm on the hunt for another

Thanks for all the wishes everyone

After some deep thinking, I am going to try another tiny little guy, but this time we'll be matching the QT water to him, instead of him being in a bag all day, and then raising his Sg to match my QT

The plan is to drop the QT water on Friday to match his 'Store' Sg, then he will just fit right in

The Coris is coming from Oceanic, and Paul likes to keep his water @ 1.016
This was a surprise for me, and was a problem the first time I received a fish from them
Now that I know what I am dealing with, all is good

Pics to come this weekend
