The Twin Spot Wrasse is also referred to as the Clown Coris, or Twinspot Coris. The juvenile is silver with dark spots on the face. The dorsal fin has a pair of dark spots with yellow highlights on the body. The adult becomes blue-green with a white or light green band around the midsection. When courting, the male will display an increased color intensity.
It requires a 300 gallon or larger aquarium with a 4-6 inch layer of sand in which to bury itself. A single male can be kept with a group of females that is introduced prior to or at the same time as the male. The Twin Spot Wrasse will eat urchins, crabs, shrimp, and small invertebrates. It is an excellent hunter and will leave no rock unturned (literally), in search of food.

No. I believe that's a Coris variety that gets big and mean.

No, I don't know about those fish, I just took the photo to show it to you guys who I know you like wrasses, also with what happened to me with the purple firefish I don't think I'm going to put more fish in the tank for now

I love Wrasses. I know people that would probably take it but they're not in Florida.

Bad vendor (after I told him what had happened, he told me that he had only had it for a day in the store) plus the clownfish were a little aggressive towards him and he didn't make it past the second day.
 
I just finished a plate of Italian Tacos without the shells.

My daughter made pasta. I think venison and maybe Alfredo.

Things like that happen in this hobby, unfortunately there are people just to sell but that one already lost me as a client forever, and not only because of this incident, there are already 2 more previous ones and I always give he the benefit of the doubt, but as the saying goes, the third time is the charm
