wrasses

Hi everyone, I have several fish in quarantine right now and one of them is this gem tang. He is currently in a 55 gallon hypo-salinity tank with a blue jaw trigger, melanarus wrasse, leopard wrasse, and a pair of long fin clowns. They were in my 265 gallon along when I someone managed to get...

Im converting my 150 gallon to freshwater and setting up a nano reef tank. Unfortunately the nano won’t be big enough for my yellow eyed kole tang, leopard wrasse and linespot flasher. I’ve had all three for a year plus and quarantined them before adding them to the tank. All are very...

Looking into purchasing a Ruby Head Fairy Wrasse but want to know if it is better to buy an initial phase or a terminal phase male? I know the initial phase will eventually reach the terminal phase but some threads suggest that he will not develop as vibrant coloration if transitioning as a...

Hi all, I am looking for a pest-eating fish species to help keep corals from pest vulnerability. I was originally considering adding a six line wrasse to control some coral eating pests, however, after some more research, I am seeing that this fish, even if added last to the system, can become...

Looking for this little guy... Anyone selling a healthy one? I'm hoping to see a picture and a video of it eating if possible. Thanks!

Hey everyone, so I have done extensive research on ich and velvet. I made the mistake of not QTing a Powder Blue Tang (yes, I learned my lesson) and him and my hippo tang got ick. Long story short i set up two hospital tanks to treat all fish: 1. 55 gallon I’m using cupramine 2. A 29 gallon I’m...

Hi, I’m thinking about getting a six line wrasse for my reef tank, but I’m also attempting to raise pods in my refugium and (by default) main tank. Would having a wrasse work against this? Or doesn’t it matter as long as the pods have a refugium? thanks!

Hi all! I am upgrading soon to an 80 gallon reef (pending light purchase) from a 10g nano. Current stocking includes 2 occy clowns and 1 bicolour blenny. The concept for my upgraded tank will be a mixed reef and eventually dipping my toe into SPS corals. I want a tank with lots of small/medium...

Does anyone know how to keep Scarlet pinstripe wrasses? Currently have a 30 gallon with some zoas, a blood red fire shrimp and a pair of black clowns. Thinking about adding more coral and maybe adding an anemone. Are the wrasses aggressive? Will they eat corals? Will harm fire shrimps?

HI there. We currently have a 93 cube and it's been up and running for a couple years. We have the below list in our tank and they are all happy and doing well. We are also in the process of building our new tank (210) and are looking for advice on transferring the fish as well as adding new...

Hey everyone I'm having an issue with my 55 gallon mixed reef. I have/had monti eating nudis so in the past 6ish months I've bought multiple Coris wrasses, yellow and green "over the course of months". EVERY TIME I buy one I acclimate it and add it to the tank, they disappear forever. I have not...

I am looking to add a customer made cover for my 96 gallon ReefSavvy tank. Its a rimless tank so I want something that won't take away from the awesome design of the ReefSavvy tank, but will fit perfectly to ensure that wrasses and other fish don't find their way past the cover. And while I...

So with the belief that everything happens for a reason it's now time to rethink and plan my stock list. After having to move everyone to the QT because of ICH, I was forced to slow down. I would like to have the following in my tank once its all said and done. I plan on doing 30 day QT for...

Today is a sad day for me. I went to the basement to feed my QT to find my X-mas wrasse dried up on the floor. Apparently ich is nothing compared to jumping ability. Egg crate did not stop my little buddy. I have been using egg crate on the DT and was planning on going with the BRS netting...

Hi reefers out there, am having an issue with my wrasses since last Friday is being dry stormy ⛈ here in Miami and since them my three ferry wrasses are hiding under the rocks they don't come out not even to eat, please any advise or help me what to do. Thank You

Hi everyone! I'm SaltySue with the purple hair. I have kept freshwater since I was 11 yrs old & at 58 decided to go saltwater. I started with a 5 gal nano knowing it would be hard. My lfs guys did a great job teaching the basics & have read & learned a lot here! I had my nano for 15 months...

I was just wondering about keeping these types of wrasse. I really like them and feel they would be a great addition to my tank. Just looking at advice at keeping these types of wrasse. At my lfs they don't get them in. He told me they are very hard to keep, but at the time I wasn't looking at...
