    He's pretty much evil. I did a lot of research online and everything said he is a peaceful wrasse and can be kept with other wrasses. Well, mine just happens to be the spawn of Satan!

    Those are beautiful fish! Flame wrasses are on the cover of at least two Hawaiian fish ID books. I've gone on over 200 dives on Maui, Oahu and the Big Island, and have yet to see one, so they are very rare. Lucky! Expensive?

    How neat! Too bad you've never seen one - I bet they are amazing to see in the ocean. I am very lucky. I hope my other wrasse cools it, so I can keep them!

    Expensive, yes. lol

    Thanks! Wrasse are a lot of fun!!
