Anampses species ship as badly as Pseudojuloides do, which is generally worse than the Macropharyngodon species.I know a couple of you guys have a tamarin, how well do they ship?
I've never had a tamarin before. New wrasse to me, but look and act like leopards from what I've been reading. So I shouldn't have an issue as I'm well versed in leopard care.
I currently have a few and many over the years. Most are poor shippers and I find them more challenging than Leopards in their acclimation and first feedings, but are very similar in their requirements, sandbed, lifespan and behavior. They do, however grow larger……so inverts, hermits etc..are on the menu when larger. I had a large blue dot take out a fighting conch.I know a couple of you guys have a tamarin, how well do they ship?

Oh c’mon I know the name scientifically of all but 2 but I don’t know how to spell them correctlyOn the subject of Anampses:
Tamarin/Anampses Wrasse
Word list: Cearulepunctatus Chrysocephalus Cuvier Elegans Femininus Geographicus Lennardi Lineatus Melanurus Meleagrides Neoguinaicus Twistiiwww.jetpunk.com
Did I make it too easy?

There’s a word box…….Oh c’mon I know the name scientifically of all but 2 but I don’t know how to spell them correctly
You mean where you type it in? I refused to have help lol.There’s a word box…….
Wow! Thanks for the detailed list!! I will increase my sand depth to 2 inches. Thanks for tang input as well. My must have there is a yellow-eyed kole...hopefully from Hawaii.Absolutely get a deeper sandbed for any wrasse! I aimed for 2” with my larger gang (Went slightly over and now have 3” deep in some areas), my smaller gang has one species that needs sand so I stuck to a lower amount of sand.
As for wrasse list, there’s way too many species out there. Best thing would be for you to look through each genus, post a list here and then we sort it out;
Cirrhilabrus
Paracheilinus
Halichoeres
Anampses
Pseudojuloides (Although I wouldn’t do this genus in a tang with that many tangs - I’d honestly reduce the tang number to 3 at the max. You’ll find tangs just become too active and often more boring and the aggression just adds up to them being annoying species’ in general)
Macropharyngodon
Xenojulis
If you want a starting list then here you go;
Cirrhilabrus naokoae
Cirrhilabrus lubbocki
Cirrhilabrus rubriventralis
Cirrhilabrus shutmani
Cirrhilabrus nahackyi
Paracheilinus mccoskeri
Paracheilinus cyaneus
Paracheilinus lineopunctatus
Paracheilinus rubricaudalis
Paracheilinus flavidorsalis
Macrophayrngodon bipartitus
Macropharyngodon negrosensis
Macropharyngodon kuiteri
Macropharyngodon moyeri
Macropharyngodon melagris
Anampses melanurus
Anampses melagrides
Anampses lineatus
Anampses neoguinaicus
Anampses cuvier
Pseudojuloides severnsi
Pseudojuloides atavai
Pseudojuloides crux
Pseudojuloides elongatus
Pseudojuloides cerasinus
Xenojulis margaritaceus
Love that Eightline Flasher Wrasse. You will like him.
I had one shipped a couple weeks ago... it arrived DOA. Not sure if they are overly sensitive to shipping stress or it was the weather being a little too cold. Really bummed me out because it was one of my dream fish and I had waited for it for a long time. Hopefully yours fares better!I know a couple of you guys have a tamarin, how well do they ship?

Thanks. I have some calanus, I'll try that. I actually feed that through one of the autofeeders in my display tank. I'm tempted to cut QT short with these guys. They're on their 3rd day of API GC, maybe I'll skip the copper.Live brine, PE calanus(I find most wrasses go crazy for calanus like candy), maybe some flake, or pellets.
