The Wrasse Lover's Thread!

Not the images that came up for me. Similar, but the ones I saw were just an ugly green color. Kind of like if a tile fish was green.

By those images, I wouldn't mind getting one myself.

I’ll admit that google images doesn’t do much for them.

Don’t disrespect the tilefish! They aren’t that bad when green, usually they’re a nice emerald ;)

Snapped a quick video of the 75 gallon. Battling the hair algae, and I need to clean the glass, but at least you can see all the wrasses in there besides the possum since it slinks through the rockwork.

Very nice! There is absolutely no aggression there.

The damsels chase each other a bit, but it could be a lot worse. The blue devil pair own the rock structure on the right, while the sapphire and smithi damsels own the left pile.

Had it a couple months now. All my fish go through at least 30 days of quarantine with cupramine, prazi, metroplex, and formalin/acriflavine baths.

As for the tang police, these fish are going in the empty 180 gallon I have sitting in my mud room in the next couple months. Just need to buff the acrylic and build a stand.

I assume you mean what I know about care of the severnsi?

Yes. And temperament/personality

I wasn’t familiar with them until seeing this posting and now I’m intrigued. Such a stunning fish! But I already have several wrasses along side a few tangs and other fish.

I know one person who has. I won’t. Talked to owner and asked about his qt a few times. He kept replying to read the vague website. Then he lied trying to sell me an over priced Jewled. That was after offering a powder blue and couple more normal tangs for my Hemi. I laughed at him and said you need to try harder. Owner rubbed me wrong so I moved on
Also according to him lennardi’s are collected in 80 plus degree waters

What are the wrasses you currently have?

Ya. I couldn’t figure out the QT. Looks like TTM with febendazole and maybe H2O2 dips. I don’t get online vendors making it difficult to understand. It’s not proprietary. A short paragraph with bullet points. I don’t need to know if they burn incense or play Yani.

Lol. Could you imagine the poor Lennardi’s!

Hi! I added a 6 line wrasse 4 days ago and haven't seen him since. I assume he is in the sand acclimating, but just wanted to double check if thats an ok period of time not to see him?

From what I know 6 line wrasse don’t go into the sand only Halichoeres or Macropharyngodons and others do this. 4 days is sometimes normal but since it is a famous 6 line it should’ve come out by now at least for a quick peek.

What other fish are in the tank?
Generally Rock Sleeing wrasses (Pseudocheilinus is not a sand sleeping genus) will come out with in 2-3 days.

When o see a two page arrival on qt process i automatically assume it’s all fluff and trying to hide something. They might be ok but o never had a good contact with them. Owner reached out to me a bunch of time to push sales. I told him you saw my collection and it’s stuff you with you had or could keep alive
