    I just got a cool pic from a collection  station guru in Vanatua(sp?) and had to show you all.

    The pic is of a feminus wrasse and taken by larry Sharron.

    Let's see your wrasses.

    GORGEOUS!

    Tank is about limited on fish stock - made promise to wait at least a year before adding anything new -

    But after seeing this beauty; makes one start thinking about that exception; to every rule.

    Seriously, will have a wrasse one day and would like to see pics of other favorites

    That's it! my next fish is a wrasse for sure.
    But it will have to be something I can put into a 40G with two False Percs.
    Any suggestions?

    Any flasher or fairy should be fine, as well as the sixline. IMO flashers and fairy wrasses have a better disposition and tend to pick at the DSB fauna less.
