Very Nice Blue Star one of my favoritesWent a little crazy at the LFS but how could I resist these 3 healthy and eating beauties?
Question though, can I add a Coris gaimard to the tank with the radiant wrasse in the future?

Snagged this beauty from the LFS today. Cirrhilabrus katherinae.
Katherinae is a species I’d love. I personally think of them as one of the classics, I’m too poor to afford some of those truly rare ones I’d love so I settle for wrasses we used to know as being rare haha.Snagged this beauty from the LFS today. Cirrhilabrus katherinae.
He will come out however if you have any larger (3-4’+) displays with sand, you may find him to be much more comfy in there. If he’s for sale then I can understand him being in the 20. The easiest way to make him comfy if he’s for sale is through making sure the chromis aren’t bullying him when he is out.We had this melanurus (i believe anyway, hasnt come out long enough for me to ID properly, and moves around way too much when he does) surrendered to the store over a month ago and he literally spends 98% of his time in the sand. He comes out to eat every few days, but is nice and fat so im assuming hes snacking on worms or something when I’m not looking.
Will he ever be out and about and what can I do to make him more comfy? He’s in a 20gal cube as our 40s have no sand, with a couple black bar chromis
He is for sale, unfortunately we don’t have any larger tanks with sand bottoms, well the one we do houses a volitan lionfish so that won’t work well. I havent seen the chromis pick on him at all but may move them and just let him have the tank to himself until he goes home with someone. Thank you!He will come out however if you have any larger (3-4’+) displays with sand, you may find him to be much more comfy in there. If he’s for sale then I can understand him being in the 20.

Other than that, time will take its course and he’ll be out eventually.
This nice looking male was only $40! This is one of my favorite LFS (I drive over an hour to get there past 5 or 6 other stores because the selection, health, and pricing is so much better). They bring in their fish direct from overseas, skipping wholesalers entirely, which also means much less velvet.Katherinae is a species I’d love.

Give her a few weeks, they won’t be out first time every timeWell its been 3 days and still no sign of my Black leopard wrasse. He was out swimming when I picked him up at LFS
Agree with @i cant think , give her a little more time. Are you home all day to watch the tank? I just got a pencil wrasse 4 days ago and so far he only emerges from 11am to 3pm, if it wasn't for my tank camera I would never see him.Well its been 3 days and still no sign of my Black leopard wrasse.

Yep! I have a Wyze camera pointed at my tank so that I can watch the tank anytime I want. Definitely gives you peace of mind when you're away from your tank on vacation, etc.Tank Camera?
LOL I'm actually home today so I'll do my best to get a pic of him. He's still very shy.you’ve said it, we need photos asap.
