    I guess the logic is okay if your tank is ALMOST big enough like yours, but it doesnt work for say tangs and small tanks even there is enough room for them to go diagonal

    of course. flashers are recommended for 30g+, my tank has the correct volume, just not the shape.

    What shape does the tank need to be for a Flasher wrasse? I haven't read anything about a certain shape for them.

    I think they need more side to side swim space, rather than a cube.

    How do you NOT like possum wrasse?? Those things are SWEET

    weeeeeell, my tank is only 20'' long, according to most people even though my tank has the correct volume, the cube shape 'limits' the wrasse from swimming. i disagree because like said above, fish don't just swim back and fourth.

    Like I said, my wrasse just likes to swim in and out of my rock work. I haven't really noticed him swimming from side-t-side though either.
