Very nice wrasse. I generally favour reef safe wrasses over other fish...but man, some of these wrasse are expensive.

The Labouti wrasse is reef safe. and yes... not cheap... but it's the first fish where i busted budget over it, was looking for a gem!

FINALLY... i'm done gluing to the 20+ frags aquired since Chrismass in my display... had to sell a few colonies and re-organize a bit. I took the time to 'glue' the rocks together.. thing that i should have done from the start.. but it was my first scape, so neglected that aspect.

here's a FTS from today

and some under Blues:

Nice looking fish

Nick James · Apr 29, 2017

Nice work! I'll be tagging along!

david p. · Apr 30, 2017

For those rare time when you have time to clean everything!!

david p. · Apr 30, 2017

though this one came out pretty good:

david p. · May 7, 2017

Got 2 more inmates!
a couple of Leopard Wrasse, they were a pair at the LFS and i could not resist.
I was planning on getting a mauritian mystery wrasse, a more rare fish, but i thought the pair would be a nicer addition

also got that Rainbow Tenuis... unfortunatly, when i tryied tocut the colony from the rock, it exploded in 6 pieces. Gonna be a rly nicepiece, green base, with pink coralite and blue tips. Polyps colors seems to be kinda blue, will need time to confirm this.
