Stocking question :)

Hi guys, are there any small wrasses besides the 6 line or flasher? The 6 line is too mean and the flasher always seems to look like death to me. Thankkkkkss

 

Fairy wrasses and Possum wrasses.

 

Is that it?? Im not a huge fan of possum wrasses.... What specific type of fairy wrasses, those could be cool!! Or a cleaner wrasse? I hear they die easily though..

 

Here is a good link
Wrasse Fish for Sale: Cleaner Wrasse and other Reef Safe Wrasse Species

Stay away from cleaners they are obligate cleaners of fish.

 

Oh thanks man! Why do you not reccomend the cleaner?? They are really cool! Haha but i guess they die alot

 

They make their living eating parasites and dead skin from fish. They need lots of fish to set up shop.

 

Oh really?? What if i could get him on prepared foods?

 

It would survive but it is a difficult task and it has happened.

 

how is your rock work set up?

if you have a over hangs that lead into caves you will have a better chance in seeing the marine betta. they are low light and when they pop out they will most likely still want to stay in a shaded area. do you feed it feedershrimp? if they get used to seeing you out front when they feed they might come out to great you when they eat.

 

Oh yea i have tons of arches and overhangs. Haha ya i feed him brine and mysis and he eats like a champ! he even greets us in te daytime sometimes, he is definitly becoming more comfortable and im sure he will hang in front soon!
