    Solar Wrasse Shots (Pics)

    This guy is tough to photographic, he moves very quickly so tough to get a focus on ... but such nice colorations on him

    Great Fish!!

    I had the displeasure of finding my Fairy wrasse cooking itself on a VHO bulb the other day. I don't know what spooked it, I had it for about 3 months and it ate like a pig, but for some reason it decided to take a leap!!! Guess I'm going to have to add some egg crate to the top of the tank B4 I replace her!!!

    ONLY because they are such great close-ups that it's hard to judge him against anything else in the shot! I wish the one they had at my LFS last week was in as good shape as yours.

    Did you get him local or online? I've been thinking about adding a trio of flasher wrasses to keep my scissortail gobies company, and the only place they seem to come from with any regularity is the Marine Center. I know they have great stock, I've just never bought a fish online. I know you and Ninong have had good experience with them.

    Yes I did get him locally. I was lucky to spot it in the store. I would love t have a trio, that would be very cool. Yes, I have had luck with The Marine Center ... and also one bad encounter as well. I ordered a small red sea tang and got one over 6" ... that was a bit of a goof ... other than that, I have had some good luck with them.
