    New fish help!

    So I introduced a leopard wrasse into my 90 gal tank a week ago. I have a blue hippo tang and flame fin Tomini tang already in the tank already and they seem to bully the leopard wrasse. Will this stop eventually? I feed 2 times a day and probably over feed a little so I don’t think food is an...

    I am looking to add three wrasse to my tank after a tank crash a while ago. I have a 50gal display that's 48"long, and I am looking for three reef safe wrasse to put in. I am thinking a possum wrasse might have to be one of them due to being docile and good cleaners. I am open to suggestions...

    Can a Melanurus wrasse be in a predator tank?

    I am currently in the transition of making my mixed coral reef tank into a predator/aggressive tank. I have a melanurus wrasse that I was wondering if it could still be in a predator tank or should I take him out? Thank you!

    Copper banded fish or wrasse

    Which fish if more affective at controlling bristle worms at their small stage? Copper band fish or Wrasse????? The Copper band is a great addition to the tank and I found a wrasse that’s pretty unique looking as well but not sure if it’s a certain wrasse or all wrasse that eat bristle worms

    Will These Three Wrasses Get Along

    Hello, I am thinking of adding these three wrasses to my 119 gallon tank: Melanarus Earmuff Yellow Coris will these three get along? Additionally I have heard the melanarus is particularly bad about going after CuC. Would there be a better alternative to this one to add with the other two...

    Wrasses in a Reefer 250

    Am I maxed out on wrasses for my Reefer 250? In a perfect world, I would prefer a peaceful tank with an additional open water swimmer. If I could add more than 1 fish, that'd be great. If possible, I want to add another wrasse to the system and would appreciate any suggestions that might be...

    Adding wrasse to tank with established wrasse

    How would I go about adding a mccosker flasher wrasse to a tank that has a pretty decent sized melanarus wrasse that’s been in the tank for 4-5 months. will it be okay to just straight up add to the tank since they different families or will they instantly fight? Tank size is 80G display with...

    Does fish size matter?

    Recently had swung by my lfs and noticed that slightly larger sized Wrasses and Tangs are priced higher than their smaller counterparts. I left really thinking about it since I’ve never really thought about fish size when making a purchase unless I am stocking a smaller tank etc. So my fellow...

    I have an exploration of amphipods that are eating my zoas. Yes I’m sure the pods are the problem. Will a yellow corris hunt pods and keep the population down? I know they sleep at night but if it kills the ones it find during the day it should help keep the population in check. I have...
