Male Filamentos Fairy Wrasse

Wrasse Fish, Reef Safe Wrasse Fish - Aquatic Connection

First Question: Does anyone have any experience with this fish?

Tank mates would be the following:
McCosker Flasher Wrasse
True Perc Clown
Yashia Gody
Blue Damsel (not being aggressive, but will remove if he starts)

55 gal tank

Second Question: Does anyone have experience with this vendor?

Third Question: Also considering Blue Flasher Wrasse, thoughts on that fish. If I get both, I'd remove the damsel.

Thanks and input appreciated.

P. filamentosus is one of the (only) more potentially aggressive flashers from what I've heard. Especially with other wrasses. I would choose another, a blue would be nice and more passive from my research.

Never ordered from aquacon.com sorry.

Have you looked at some of the smaller fairy wrasses as well? It looks like you're in love with the flashers but there are some nice fairies as well.

 

dont have experience with the one listed but i do for the McCoskers this fish deffiently gets picked on *mine does from my evil chromis* and is currently covered in ick *i think* because of the stress, so make sure you have very docile fish with that guy

Also check out LiveAquaria, i've also ordered from BlueZooAquatics and have just ordered another wrasse from NYAquatics so those are some other possible vendors

 

Definitely like wrasses.... I am researching and looking. In no rush...

Since I only have a 55 gal, I am limited from many to fish that I'd like. Thus, I am looking for a few stunning fish to make up the tank. My McCoskers and Yashia Goby are the two long term keepers. True Perc was for my kids. The damsel will go eventually. I figure I can add maybe 2 more fish. They need to be awesome.

Suggestion welcome.

check out Melanurus Wrasse their a caution with reefs as their known to eat inverts and shrimp but mine is behaving perfectily and very docile and just goes about picking at the rocks and sand, and im getting a Pink Margin Fairy Wrasse that's supposed to arrive on Tuesday.

so just some ideas im a wrasse fan too

 

Thanks, I'll check them out.
