    Is the top one a type of leopard wrasse? He is cool....
    I had never seen a leopard wrasse before this one that I can remember.

    I have only owned 2 wrasse...one was a dragon wrasse. Cool fish, but I hear they can get nasty (died in a mysterious tank crash of 2008 :cry:). The other one was a lunar wrasse that my YELLOW TANG killed. Lemontart (Tang) teamed up with my foxface (Shockey) and killed that poor fish the very first night. Needless to say I no longer have either one of the killers in my new tank.

    I was going to get a dragin/reindeer wrasse but my lfs advised against it in a reef tank. Apprently they like to move stuff around
