You all want a picture of her? She’s right here:

@Slocke she has decided she has become one with sand for now lol, we’ll see how long it takes her to come out

Is that a DrReef Lunare? :face-with-tears-of-joy:

Nope!

It’s a fish I thought I’d never get ;)

My yellow coris that came in 2 days ago, was out and eating yesterday and was exploring around today. Never realized how vibrant their yellow really was, cant wait to get him/her into the dt!

You’ve got a chrysus situation in that tank.

 

[Tcook]

Rainfordi?

 

[Slocke]

Nope!

I knew it was a Dr Reef lunare!
You just must have been away during that time

Well looks like I did in fact receive the wrong wrasse. Pictures look exactly like a lunare as opposed to a Melanarus that I ordered. Now the question lies in that I’m pretty sure the Lunare would get to large for my 4’ 65 gallon tank. Stock with the lunare is a pair of clowns, exquisite wrasse, lubbocks and adorned. Not sure whether this lunare would be compatible with my tank long term.

So at the overpriced LFS today they had a 8” lunare and 2 3” lunare. My plan was for a quinquevittatum but those lunares are so beautiful…. deadly but beautiful

At TSA today there was an almost a foot long Thalassoma grammaticum! Didn’t see the price cuz i immediately looked over it lol…..but I’m guessing it’s super expensive

My new Ornate Wrasse just came out after 2 days in the sand! I was worried I might never see it again.

Both it and my Neon Dottyback are very focused on the mirror I put up to stop my dottyback from harrassing it (and it appears to be working).

I have been obsessed with getting a Wrasse for the last month and added a thick sand bed and lots of pods.

Don’t be frightened. Macropharyngodons are prone to be in the sand for days at a time when first introduced. Really nice wrasse you’ve got! What size would you say it is?

It is at least 3 inches. It is bigger than anything else in the tank, including the dottyback.

 

[i cant think]

Well, I knew something would occur and I didn’t get a Vivienne unfortunately, the reason for this is the Viviennes and Madagascan Half Bar are coming in next Thursday. So it’ll be another week before I even see a vivienne.

You’ve been there many times to get a wrasse. Not sure why they don’t help you out. Kind of weak of them.
