Banana or Chrysus?

I am not an expert eye... And it looks almost impossible to tell.

But Yellow Coris was what was written. I will call banana though :)

 

[Nate Chalk]

I mean look at these pictures....

Who is actually right?

I asked because it looked more like a Chrysus than a Banana wrasse. I bet @Slocke and @JoJosReef would agree with me.

I'm going to eventually add a Chrysus to my tank... Right now the Melanurus, Leucoxanthus, and Garnoti are all doing good.

My administrative assistant was telling me about her dad on Wednesday. Apparently he's been sick lately - an infection went septic. Her brother-in-law went to th store to get him some CBD gummies and got the ones with THC. She gave him one and then an hour or two later she gave him two more. He started giggling and acting funny so she looked at the bottle and realized she had just got her dad "high as a kite". He'd never had marijuana before...

10mg is my threshhold . It's "wimpy" but I've never understood the 2 beer hazing. Its much more affordable to get tipsy etc.

The people who need more are just spending more moneys.

hehe :P

Everyone is lying, because yellow coris wrasse isn't a coris wrasse at all (ya feelin' me @Slocke ?). To my knowledge, banana wrasse refers to Thalassoma lutescens aka yellow-brown wrasse, which gets to about a foot long, and initial phase is yellow with some red vertical striping (I think in the dorsal fins).

Yellow "coris" wrasse is a common name for Halichoeres chrysus, which I call the yellow pig wrasse [Etymology: Halichoeres: Greek, als, alis = salt + Greek, choiros = pig, from fishbase.se], i.e. "salt pig". H. chrysus initial phase is yellow all the way through with cute black spots on the dorsal fins.

I think you have a yellow pig wrasse, but I'm not a wrasse expert... yet.

Is that a figure skating trophy?

 

[JoJosReef]

Is that a figure skating trophy?

Of course not. If it were figure skating it'd be a monstrous, masculine gold trophy shooting out fireworks. That's probably for Curling, you can tell by how happy the winner is and also by the enormous crowd.

 

[Stang67]

Any recommendations on good lfs near the Columbus area? Since I will be down there might as well stop in to see the goods.

Looks like e sports to me. Lol
