    I just ordered a Red Velvet Fairy Wrasse(Cirrhilabrus rubrisquamis) from DD's WYSIWYG. Should ship tomorrow and be here Thursday. This is my first online purchase of any kind of livestock so hopefully it all goes smooth.
    This is a pic from their site.

    Nice fish. Love those things. They are jumpers though. Hope you have a cover.

    yeah my DD wrasse found his way up through where my power cords came out. Ticked me off. I built a cover that covered everything, or so I thought. I looked at that area and said no way he'll get threw there. Well, he did. Clever idiot.;)

    I have found waiting for an order is the pits, and I just ordered about 6 hours ago. Im all about instant gratification. Not an impulse buy though, I have been reading up and researching them, I just want it now that I made a desicion.
