Haha doesn’t qualifyI love Harlequin Tuskfish but I’ve never had one.
Such a stunner! I am going to get one at some point for sureMine would be my juvenile marine betta. I got him at the beginning of the year, and he was roughly the size of a fairy wrasse.
He's an oddly good eater for a marine betta, taking food directly from my hand, and even eating sinking pellets meant for the other fish.
While they are usually shy, mine comes right to the front of the tank to greet me, and might be the only fish in my reef that truly recognizes and interacts with me.
(Please excuse the photobombing hawkfish)
Thank you! I hunted far and wide for a captive bred individual. They can be hard to find, but totally worth it. None of the issues with feeding or shyness that the wild caught ones have.Such a stunner! I am going to get one at some point for sure
That’s awesome. Mine has quite the history. I got him when he was a mere 2” fish at the LFS (I used to have three in a tank with pacu but eventually gave them away). He lived in the community tank for a while, until he just got far too aggressive. He was about 6-7” at that time. That’s also when I had a 2” piranha (named Thanos) growing out in the community tank. The plan was to eventually move them into their own tank, but it was still cycling. However, we had to throw them in early as they became quite the duo of havoc, much quicker than expected. For about a year, they lived together as two lonely fish in a large tank. Multiple tankmates were attempted, but Thanos saw to it that none survived long. The only one with the ability and strength to survive was that leporinus. Eventually, the leporinus tried his luck with fighting the piranha (who was around 6” at that point, the leporinus 8”) and lost his right eye. I for sure thought the piranha would finish him, but fate looked in the leporinus’s favor, and the piranha mysteriously died, for no reason (I’m still confused on that one.) Now, the leporinus is the king of the tank. Without the piranha, it is now a cichlid tank, with a Jack Dempsey, Parrot, Convict, and many other fish. The leporinus is the boss around that tank, and has a great personality!I used to have one with a foot long Oscar and the little leo (only 7 inches at the time) was the boss hahaha
Vrolik's WrasseThat wrasse is beautiful! Is that a Melanurus wrasse?

I used to have a v puffer - he was like a little water dog hahah!I love clownfish I grew up watching Finding Nemo, so its almost an instinctual love now XD i love how simple and hardy they are, but at the same time they have lots of personality. I would like to have a tang one day, or a puffer, because I know that they are basically underwater dogs with SOO much personality. Total derps from what Ive heard lol.
Im confused you told me it was the vroliks.
Both are stunning fish!I am not allowed favourites, for interaction and personality my fox face, my rescue scopas has a special place in my heart.
They’re like little bulldogs! Love themLove all my Jawfish.
