Is that a Christmas wrasse? Great find though for $30 either way

He said it was a McKoskers wrasse. I will take better pics after acclimation.

Hope you have a cover on your tank. They are jumpers!!

Beautiful!

 

[spoonman]

Thanks, I can't find him already. Think he buried himself.

Nice fish colors are amazing!

 

[spoonman]

Found him this morning. He is fine and swimming around. Gonna find my tops for this tank today!

Here is the last fish in the 75. He is an Indigo Hamlet. What do you think?

Pretty crazy looking never seen one, Love that wrasse you got, I was thinking of getting one also. Just got the 54 corner going on 9/18 pretty stoked still cycling

Good luck with the tank. I am totally thrilled with both the Wrasse and the Hamlet. Perfect ending to the stock of the 75. It is complete now!

That's a beautiful wrasse! Not a mccoskers wrasse though. I have a mccoskers wrasse And its not even similar. That's a pic of one in my avatar Ans here is a pic of mine a while back. I don't think its a Christmas wrasse either but that is alot closer than a mccosker.

You are right. It isnt even close to a McCoskers. I have been cruising the net and I think it is a Melanurus Fairy Wrasse. What do you all think?

 

[Nu-Nu the eel]

I didnt know you were having trouble with an ID, lol yes its a melenarus wrasse or "christmas" wrasse

 

[paul87]

Yea probably. I saw a baby Christmas wrasse and it was alot more red than that one but fairly close. Awesome looking fish though and you got a good deal. Wrasses are so awesome.
