No wrasses yet, haven't been able to replace the one I lost in the outrage yet since re-starting this.
I've found that my melanurus wrasse is a great predator for the small aquarium nuisances we often get. I had some red bugs come in with a maricultured piece I got (before I started dipping corals), got the wrasse, and the next day saw zero red bugs, small feather duster worms, and large amphipods. The little guy also took out a small barnacle on the same acro and I'm pretty sure it's the reason I no longer have vermetied snails haha

I'm in the market to replace my Fiji Exquisite Fairy Wrasse, mainly because clowns don't come in green :P

I dumped three different kinds of pods in a little over a week ago so they should be good and established by the time I get a pod predator in the tank. Hopefully they aren't bigger then he is by the time I find one :P
