Jessica-lee said:Hello we currently have 2 wrasses in our 120gal SW reef, a beautiful female Black African Leopard Wrasse about 2 inches in size and we are looking for a male for her, and we have a small Six Line Wrasse, only and inch in size. We used to have a Golden Wrasse in our 75gal before we upgraded but sadly she passed
Keithhjs said:Well another six line wrasse in my tank too, but don't have a good pic right now! We need more pics of others though.
I used to have a lunar wrasse and a dragon wrasse years ago. The dragon was quite a cool fish. Always moving rocks, shells & whatnot. Buried every night too.
All your guys wrasses look great btw!

Hwndiver said:I didn't personally collect them, to deep for me haha but I know the diver who did catch them. He also brought up about 5 more, all In great health! Lucky to live in Hawaii because they are safely collected and have the minimum amount of stress because of transport. They are also really cheap here
The male is AMAZING! If we bought a smaller female, the larger one would turn male correct?
Wow i love them both!! I was very interested in the melenarus until we saw the flame... Lol
If they were the same price, I would definitely have the flame too! I paid $37 for the melanarus. The only time I've seen flame wrasses, they have been in the three digit range.
When I first got the melanarus in the tank, the blue-sided chased him a little, even though the melanarus is a little bigger. Now, the melanarus is definitely the boss. He doesn't chase non stop, but he will run at the blue-sided for a second when he gets within about 4" of him. I'd like to add an exquisite and a Carpenter's or McCoskers as well.
I've been fortunate enough to see this reef in person twice. They have more wrasses than you can shake a stick at and some I've never even heard of. pretty much all fairies and flashers.
