LFS had some very pretty line spots in, a royal flasher, several "greenback" fairies (Scott's), 2 mislabeled fairies that said whipfins, but were not.

No sir! These would certainly not fit in with the Bad Guys.
There are some wrassey ideas swirling around lately, however. Who knows what will happen.

Saw this on Instagram and thought it was neat. Wild adult Thalassoma klunzingeri successfully hunting and consuming small fish.


Now that one, pop him in with the bad guys any day of the week!

Taking the mermaid thing to the next level, are we? Is this what's required now for the mods to give out a special badge!?

Here’s a hard one, what is your number one wrasse?

Until I keep a D.T again, I think I’ll have to say it’s the rubri. They’re just so personable and bright.

I love Gonis and Euphyllia. Maybe too much

We’ll be waiting with baited breath while you “wrassle” with those plans

Swung by one of my favorite LFS tonight for their 20% off coral sale and picked up a few new wrasses to go with a couple corals! They had a lot of awesome choices, but I limited myself to just 2. Cirrhilabrus lubbocki (Indo variant lubbocks fairy wrasse) and Cirrhilabrus adornatus (koi fairy wrasse). Here's hoping they play well with the rest of the fairies (katoi, ryukyuensis, chaliasi, and filamentosus)!

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
