Hey everyone,
Just added a rhomboid super male that was in QT for 20 days.
I can try to get better pics (Ik it’s a horrible pic) but this is him in my 310g Any idea what this weird white sunken area is on him?
I’m brand new to the hobby and picked up a 2” fairy wrasse at my LFS today. They bought it as a Red-Fin Fairy Wrasse but thought it was actually a Naoka’s Fairy Wrasse. Any ideas?
I've had my exquisite fairy wrasse for about 6 months now without any issues. He has his cave he likes to hide in to sleep at night. Yesterday I noticed he didn't really want to come out during feeding. He grabbed things that floated by but stayed in the cave mostly. Today I noticed he was still...
Cirrhilabrus is a genus of wrasses that contains dozens of species, nearly all of which are gorgeous, reef safe fish that are small in stature, and peaceful with tankmates. The sheer volume of the species available to the home aquarist can be daunting, and with some of them, there is substantial...
I recently introduced a Naoko's Fairy Wrasse into my tank a few days ago. He has been pretty timid, hiding within the rock. I was able to get him to eat yesterday. Today he came right out once I turned the flow off and I saw it as an opportunity to feed him. He readily accepted it.
This evening...
Hey Everyone! I recently put in an order for my business, and they accidentally shipped me a Diamond Tailed Wrasse (even though they charged me for it). I typically only put in special orders for my customers who are looking for something specific, and then a lot of clean up crew. I have seen...
The Squire's Wrasse is a “new” fish in the aquarium hobby. While the fish has obviously existed for a very long time indeed, it was only recently classified as its own species by Fenton Walsh in 2014. Its scientific name, Cirrhilabrus squirei, comes from Lyle Squire and family, who were...
Hello. I got this nako wrasse today, and i put it in a observational qt tank. When I got him earlier today, he had some light spots on both sides, but 5 hours later the spots have developed into very distinct marks on both sides of the wrassse.
I fed brine shrimp, and he ate a couple pieces...
Hey so at the fish store I work at, we got in this “tricolor fairy wrasse” aka Red head fairy wrasse and I’ve seen a lot of those they all relatively similar. They look like this…
But we got one that looked very different from the other. Here’s a couple pics of him. If anyone has any idea of...
My new Fairy wrasse is swimming on his side and not moving much. He had bubbles and mucus coming out of his gills earlier today but that stopped and he had a long white poo. I don't know if he has parasites or a spinal injury or if this is normal. He's my first wrasse. Anyone know what's going on?
On August 8th two new fish were added to my display. Purchased from one of two places I have bought livestock. Wasn’t until after problems started and calling the store for more information and help. That I realized they keep all fish in Sub therapeutic copper. After they have been through QT in...
Looking into purchasing a Ruby Head Fairy Wrasse but want to know if it is better to buy an initial phase or a terminal phase male? I know the initial phase will eventually reach the terminal phase but some threads suggest that he will not develop as vibrant coloration if transitioning as a...

My fairy wrasse (Wanda) was acting normal for the first couple of weeks out of quarantine. This morning she was laying on her side, but breathing normally. After leaving the house for a few hours, I came home to her upside down, but still breathing.
There so signs of disease or wounds, other...
Need help determining whether or not this Red Finned Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus rubripinnis) is a male or female.
I got as many pics as I could, but it's a wrasse. It moves. Fast. So several came out blurry even though it looked fine as I snapped the phone. These are the best ones I had.
I...

I have a Lineatus wrasse that I just got from LA which is not eating and hiding in acclimation box. I have two sections of PVC zip tied together in acclimation box for him to hide in and that is all he does is hide. He will move from one section of PVC to the other but never when I am in the...
I've been offered a nice looking Leopard Wrasse and while I was planning on only having Fairy Wrasses this grabbed my interest. I would try researching more on my own but this is probably going to pass quickly.
Am I asking for trouble when I have a male c. solorensis and male c. lubboki...
I somehow overlooked how thin this guy was at the store due to my excitement of finding him. Got home and put him in the acclimation bucket and was shocked. I’m not calling him emaciated because he does move as much as expected considering I just got him. Trust me when I say beyond his head is...
