One of these should up at lfs a few months ago, it didn't look this nice or I might have pulled the trigger... Nice look fish. What is his temperament like?Here’s my Rhomboid.......we named him Prince
He’s very peaceful. He gets along with the other tank mates - Flame wrasse, Pintail, blue cleaner wrasse, orange storm, fatty borbonius, and a beautiful Gem tang.One of these should up at lfs a few months ago, it didn't look this nice or I might have pulled the trigger...

There's not a whole lot really. Do you have a "dusk" period in your light cycle? That is when fish spawn and the time of day you'd be most likely to see flashing.Hi All,
I’d like to know if there’s anything I can do to encourage my male wrasses to flash. For example, my terminal phase male flame wrasse almost never flashes, even in the presence of a female flame wrasse and other non-flame wrasses. Is there something I can do?
Around 5" is about right, IME. (12-13 cm)What is maximum size of Melanurus Wrasse? LA says 4.5” but others say 5-6”.
I have a Red Sea LED90 running on a 11-hr 23,000 Kelvin cycle with 1 hr sunset/sunrise and 3-hr moon phase, so I’m assuming there’s a “dusk” phase in there somewhere . Also, does the degree of water flow affect their propensity to flash?There's not a whole lot really. Do you have a "dusk" period in your light cycle?

Not to my knowledge (provided there is at least some flow).Also, does the degree of water flow affect their propensity to flash?
Yes, about the same at the 12-13 cm mark.Does a Yellow Coris, Yellow and Purple get to around the same size?
A little smaller; 9-10 cm.What about H. Claudia
And the same again; 12-13.and H. Biocellatus
I would not; highly likely multiples will transition to male and fight.Also assuming the availability of other Halichoeres species is very low, can I keep a couple of Yellow Coris Wrasses together if I intro them simultaneously and all as juveniles?
Sorry for your loss, I know it is pretty crushingI lost my 6 line wrasse yesterday. I am heartbroken. She was hands down the most beautiful fish I ever had in my tank,
Genetically, it's the grandfather to the rest.C. laboutei is in a group by itself
Most adults of the species do tend to be a bit aggressive for Cirrhilabrus. Some do not, however; luck of the draw.appears to be somewhat aggressive
You should be okay given the size of the tank.Can it be kept along with Flame Wrasse pair, Rhomboid Wrasse, and a C. africanus / P. attenuatus pair in a 250-gal?
Anyone want to guess what leopard this is? Hard to get a good picture with her being shy
Thank you that was my best guess.m. Meleagris
