Not joking, measured in real world lady inches, hated banging a nail through it's tail and pulling it by the head! ;)

One or more? Any pictures?

I hear they are somewhat trouble with aquascape if it really isn't secure. Always wanted one.

Has anyone here ever had a yellow coris wrasse? LFS suggested I get one to replace my melanarus (had to give him back..he was a bully) to help with tiny pests/worms. Opinions?

Only one, when I start a tank I put the sand in first and wriggle the base rock until I hit glass and build up, yes they can collapse scapes, base rock needs to be secure.

@Dolelo96 I kept One for a couple years in a 32g Biocube. Got him really small and he did great in that tank. All around very peaceful fish for me and I cant say Ive ever heard of one going rogue until reading Simons post here. Melanarus seem to be hit or miss on turning aggressive.
