Not Coris wrasse! This is becoming my biggest pet peeve...

[Slocke]

Might as well get a Maori then!

Not to be that person again but Māori is generally referring to a genus….and some are almost reasonable at under a foot.

Humphead wrasse are some of my favorite fish in the ocean

There you go. Cheilinus undulates aka the humphead or Napoleon wrasse!

And at almost 7ft and 500lbs is not very reasonable.

There goes @Slocke being "that guy" again...

So instead of a 5 foot tank I have to start planning out a 10 foot tank?

I know GA had one that was too aggressive for their… 6,300,000 gallon tank so…

Crazy to think about right? I mean imagine filling it. I know they use IO purple salt and the 200gallon boxes. That’s 31,500 boxes.

People at IO must have had a nice birthday luncheon for that month.

Here’s a Māori wrasse. For those who want a somewhat uglier grouper.

Look. Another thread on the Jade coris

Acclimate Halichoeres chloropterus

Receiving a bucket list fish tomorrow- Halichoeres chloropterus and am looking for tips on acclimating. We have 3”+ sand bed and will release into the tank when the lights are out. I thank you in advance for tips.

I noticed that and thought maybe this thread is having an impact?

Or perhaps it’s just an oversight.
