90 gallons of love. New pictures 10/4

Thanks Thor. Hows your tank coming along??

 

Lets bring these pics over to this page

Looking good Vinnie, I want one so bad too! (well any kind of wrasse for that matter)

 

LOL Thanks for the bump,compliment, and the picture majic show.LOL

 

Going slow, but steady! I'll update my thread in the next few days. Still a ways from going wet, but making progress .

 

Glad to hear it!!Just some observations on my new Wrasse. He is coming out every day much earlier. Eating very well Brine,Mysis, and now flake food.This fish has the perfect temperament to go along with my Chromis and Tang. He is not aggresive but can definitely hold his own. I could not be happier with him.

 

Thats really good to hear, Vinnie! My new fairy gets chased by others here and there, but hes eating like a piggy. Ill keep an eye on him

 

Good looking wrasse. The only thing i don't like about mine is that i have to chase him away when i feed my anemone or he steals the food. However, this has been the same for all of the halichoeres that i have had.

 

Little piggies they are! but awesome hunters too. move a rock or a coral, and watch how they inspect the area.

 

i don't blame him. He is just doing what they do. The problem is that he is too smart. I hover with my hand near the anemones until they all swallow. The whole time, that wrasse is watching me and looking for an opening. as soon as I walk away from the tank, he shoots over and inspects. If there is a centimeter of food still showing in the anemone's mouth, he gets it. i admire the little guy but get annoyed at having to monitor the anemones while they feed. Luckily, i only do it once a week.

sorry, Vinny. i don't mean to clutter up your thread with my sad stories.

 

He sounds awesome Vinny! I love it when a fishy acclimates, eats, and plays nice with all the other fish. Sounds about like a perfect find!
