I am blown away with her!!!! Complete stunner for sure.
Thanks! She’s huge! My black leopard has paid zero attention to her.

Can’t wait to see yours tomorrow!

That’s a beautiful leopard, it’s making me want to go on a hunt for more leopards now, wonder if my next wrasse should be a second leopard or Anampses instead of something slightly easier like a halichoeres.

I got a “good” picture of my pink streak haha, I’ll add it now.
Backstory: I was TRYING to get a photo of my Koumansetta hectori spitting sand… the pink streak thought the phone was food or something new to look at

Hi @SaltyT
How’s the new baby doing?!
My Kuiter's is doing well! She's still in the sand I gave her a scare last night when I swapped out return pumps and flooded my tank (I had a derp moment lol). Hopefully she comes out today.

Just turned my tank camera on and saw my Kuiter's pecking on the rocks. All good!
I would love a couple of leopards. But, my track record with fairy and flashers... My husband said no :(
Eventually, he might let me grab a few more wrasses. I still wonder if my star fish ate my last wrasse. He was out and about for a week. One morning, never found him. :(

Tell your husband leopards are nothing like fairies and flashers they're more like your melanurus with less sand spitting, maybe that will change his mind. :)

I like that idea! We'll see what my lfs can get in. If nothing, I'll wait for things to warm up. I don't trust shipping services currently. They are busy.

@MoMoTheMonster thanks for hanging with me last night! It was fun staring at the tanks and having a few too many beers. Good times!
