Choose wrasses for me!

You can add others later on; use an acclimation box for observation for a few days prior to release.

I like the nahacky. Mine grazes on algae. here is a pic of mine flashing for the female.

I love when my male nahacky flashes... Every afternoon after he eats... Chases the female.... Beautiful fish though

:neutral:
I promise he's not eating algae...

is he eating the pods on the glass? he appears to be eating something off the glass frequently

Yes, that's certainly a possibility.

I got a Blue Flasher, Scott's Fairy and Red Velvet. I have a glass cover over my tank with the only opening being at the back just wide enough for a few wires. When I woke up yesterday I went to check the aquarium (a morning ritual..lol) and the Blue Flasher was on top of the glass cover at the front of the tank. Dead and dry as a bone. That made me sad..he was beautiful. The other two are doing great...it's like they never went through a break-in period. Started eating the same day I got them and are constantly out in the open. I was thinking about getting a radiant...my LFS says it will eat shrimp...is that true?

Halichoeres iridis? Not much risk of them eating shrimp. It's possible, but not very likely unless we're talking about small shrimp (<1").

Also to note, albeit a little late, but with all wrasses: if the head fits the fish fits. Any gaps which are big enough for the fish's head to fit through will eventually be found in any tank cover.

they always find a way to jump out.. sorry for the loss. Blue Flashers are amazing fish.
