wrasse

I have had a Dragon Wrasse (also known as Hawaiian Rock Mover Fish) for close to 4 years in a 340 gallon mixed reef aquarium. The fish is beautiful, has a great personality, and is healthy. Agressive frozen food eater. He's a mixed bag of feelings for me to get rid of. He's cost me hundreds...

Moving out of state and do not want to stress fish out with a travel. I live in Temecula, Ca. This is for pick up only. The fish is about 2.5” I've had it for bout 5 months now. still a juvenile and hasn't changed his color yet.

My blue throat fairy wrasse has had a white shine in his eyes at certain angles since I purchased him a few weeks ago; however, nothing ever came of it, and he has been acting completely fine. Today I noticed a small white patch on the upper edge of his left eye that I don’t believe was there...

Hi all, I purchased a new fish yesterday, thinking it was a 6-line wrasse. It is not. Any help on the ID would be appreciated! White body with lateral black lines, 3 per side. Dorsal fin also has black lateral line. Some black spots at rear coming from the lowest black line. Head and neck...

Can anyone help me ID this wrasse? It was sold as a carpenter’s flasher, but given its coloration I’m not convinced that’s the case. I’m also interested in its sex if that’s possible to tell from the photos. Thank you!

I added a Yellow coris wrasse to my tank yesterday and I put it in the tank and my melanarus wrasse was acting slightly aggressive towards it. I had to leave and once I came back the fish was gone. It has not come out from under the sand and I am wondering how long it can stay under the sand...

Hey everyone, my dusky fairy wrasse has been staying in the corner of my tank all day and has not eaten food witch is very out of character as he just attacked some mystis last night. I’m sure it has to do with him being constipated, as it looks to be a undigested mystis shrimp or a dead...

Yesterday I bought a China pearl wrasse from my lfs. I brought it home in the evening and it was picking off of every rock and went into the sand at around 430 am. It came out around 1230 pm today and has been acting strange but picking off of my power head and also ate some mystis shrimp. It is...

Came home from work and I noticed my orange back fairy wrasse was on top of the water column grasping for air. I did a ammonia test and it read .50! It was was currently in my 10g quarantine tank with a anthias. I panicked and I tossed him in my DT sump. Risking my other fish but I didn’t...

So I have 2 small gladiator clowns(15g jbj) They been in for about a month and are still fighting. Both are eating and healthy besides the one going in and out of white coloring. I want to stock a goby and a 6 line. Would it be smart to wait or add them now.

I’m going through the “ugly phase” with my new tank, and got sufficient cuc to deal with it. The problem is that my melanurus wrasse has scared them all to where they only come out at night when it’s in the sand sleeping. This means I wake up to a perfect clean tank, but within a few hours of...

HELP! I started a new tank and added a melanurus wrasse, cleaner shrimp, and 8 blue leg hermit crabs, along with some other fish and coral. The shrimp was dead a few days later, and i’m now finding empty shells and hermit crab legs all over the sand bed. I know it was the wrasse, and I know...

Bought this wrasse from Dr Reef. It immediately went into hiding and was unseen for about 20 days. I figured it was lost for sure. Man o man was I surprised to see eyes moving on what I initially thought was a trochus snail. Enjoy the short clip.

So I've got an IM 20g Pro, well established. Pods and little brown flatworms galore. Which is part of why I want to get a Wrasse, they are getting a bit out of control (worms). Not hurting anything yet but I worry they may start getting around some SPS bases, etc. They are not AEFW just the...

Hi fellow reefers, Question: (answers from experienced reef tank owners preferred) Based off of the provided information and images in this post, does this Melanurus Wrasse appear to be injured or sick? If sick, with what? Background: About 3.5 weeks ago I purchased this Melanurus Wrasse from...

hello everyone! My yellow corris wrasse has been acting strange and I’d like to see what you all think. 2 weeks ago she started hanging out at the top of the tank and darting back and fourth all day. This behaviour hasn’t changed at all since the first time she did it. Im not sure if she is...

my carpenters flasher wrasse is laying down on my acclimation box and breathing heavily, tomani tang is breathing heavily but still swimming, looks like the new chocolate tang took his spot in his rock so I celared in for him but as I am writing this he is starting to lay on his side. He had...

So yesterday I went to my Lfs and saw a China wrasse that I ended up getting after seeing it eat frozen and flake food off the floor of the tank. I put it in my tank and it did awesome all of yesterday, but stayed up through the night picking at all my rocks but not eating frozen or flake food...
