    Just picked these up today. A guy is moving, and taking the tank down, so I took a ride on the motorcycle and picked up these nice finds.

    The wrasse is like 4" and the goby is close, I don't know exactly what kind of goby, but maybe we can get an id on it here?

    It was sold to the guy as a yellow watchman, but it clearly is not. It started out yellow when they got it.

    Hopefully these guys are big enough to have the indigo dottyback leave them alone. I think that won't be an issue.

    At worst, they have to endure 2-3 weeks of harassment from the blue bastard.

    I love the radient wrasse. I have one in my fowlr lion fish tank. The goby looks like a tiger goby. If he has pink dots on his face and fins then its a tiger goby. I have one in my reef tank and don't worry about him he will take care of himself. My tiger goby is my favorite, he has a great personality. Both of mine look like the same size as yours to. lol

    Thanks infantry!
    I think it may have pink spots on the goby. A tiger goby sounds about right, but it is hard to get a clear idea when the tank it was in was all cloudy due to tear down. In the bucket it just seemed a little pale, which I would think was normal. I will pay attention tomorrow when the lights are on.

    I got these 2 fish for 25 dollars, with get this, A FREE SNAIL!!! LOL

    I know, great deal, those snails are like 3 dollars otherwise. ;)

    The goby has blue spots on his face. Any guesses?
