I was lucky enough to pick-up this amazing fish today from my LFS. I must say its the most beautiful fish I have ever seen. She is gobbling down pods and mysis in my frag tank.

I'd kill for one of those. I think last time LA had one in the Den it was around $1K

Simply one of the most stunning fish out there. Congrats on a fantastic find. Very envious. Keep posting those pictures. I'm glad she is doing well for you. She looks very at ease and healthy.

Wow! Baller LFS! Most around here don't have the nerve to get something like that in, without a pre-pay. Congrats...gorgeous fish!

As an Anampses wrasse, she needs a sandbed. You have a container of sand in that BB for her to sleep in? :fingerscrossed:

They're sure stunning fish.

Brad you have the worst luck with pics :)

You should try to create a new album with no spaces to see if that helps.

I had to copy the direct link and insert it between
to get it to work; otherwise the folder name was garbled.
