Default New Addition- Mystery Wrasse
I saw one at an LFS, thought about it, researched it, and then I saw someones tag line on here (Anthony) and went down and picked it up!

What a gorgeous fish, finished acclimating it about half hour ago and already out swimming around and checking the caves for its spot.

I did a lot of reading before getting this guy, but any thoughts, tips and comments are greatly appreciated!

they are a beautiful fish.....known to jump, can be mean and mine had a taste for any shrimp added after he was in the tank (he was fine with the two shrimp that were in the tank before him)....

Yes, most wrasses are jumpers when spooked and some just have a death wish. Keep your tank covered.
