The Wrasse Lover's Thread!

[Mike&Terry]

i hate to break the bad news to you here. I don't believe that wrasse is going to make it. I'm going to help you out and say that you can bag it
up and mail it to me, i always try to help fellow reefers out like that.

I will pay for the shipping and i don't mind helping you out a bit. :) heehee

lmbo!!!

Nice find and best of luck. We lost ours in May, after an entire year doing really well in the tank. Beautiful fish!

Thanks Z. and sorry to hear about your loss. We're hoping she'll be with us for a good long while.

Aquaph8 what is the name of the one you posted that is red and purple with the yellow underneath?

 

[CastAway]

Excited! My very first wrasse - a Flame wrasse pair. Any advice on caring for them would be greatly appreciated.

My flame wrasse seems to be getting less colorful as it gets older any reason for this ill try get a pic but it's more red not getting that fire orange color anymore

 

[MattL22]

Also is this a super male or a juvi ?

I'm not sure which your referring to, what page or quote my original post please?

I personally wouldn't add any cirrhilabrus with a pseudochelinus.

​

Does this include Pseudocheilinus ocellatus ( mystery wrasse)?

It is an initial phase male, brightness of color is related to not having a mate or rival to display to or intimidate. A super male description fits to a terminal phase male, essentially a male that cannot get any nicer looking.

Yep, it includes a mystery wrasse.

 

[Aquaph8]

Agreed
