I had 3 fish coming out of QT and into 2 different tanks. One tank was getting a juvenal Mystery Wrasse and midas blenny. The second tank was getting a juvenal lunar wrasse. All three were in the same QT together. I turned off the lights released the midas blenny and what I thought was the mystery wrasse. Not sure how I grabbed the wrong fish but I released the juvenal lunar wrasse. I released the mistake when I released the actual mystery wrasse into an acclimation box with some live rock in the box for some place to hide. That tank is a more aggressive tank and wanted to make sure the lunar had some time for the other fish to adjust. About an hour later I look in and see a pink head poking out of the rock not a very light green head. I turned the lights on in the first tank and after a while I did see the new lunar wrasse swimming around inspecting the new tank. My existing lunar wrasse is swimming around the new one a lot. My original lunar was a gorgeous dark green then I noticed that he was NOT dark green but very bright BLUE! his entire body went blue. Never seen him not green. He is swimming at the juvenal a lot but he is not attacking or pecking at the small one. But once the juvenal breaks away from him he just lets her go. So I am not too worried. I have seen him get aggressive with the chromis when they tick him off and he is not doing that to the juvenal. I assume that when the juvenal starts to transition, I will need to move one of the two.
I moved the mystery wrasse from my predator tank acclimation box and released into the first tank.
