    While I've never had an 8-line or 6-line Wrasse, I do have a Dusky Wrasse which also actively hunts pods. However, my tank has been devoid of pods ever since my first and only experience with a Mandarin Goby. Unlike the Mandarin, the Wrasse gladly accepts prepared foods, both frozen and dry, and has done quite well for over a year, now.
