    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...

    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...

    Hi guys. I have a 180 gallon mixed reef. I was hoping for some advice about mixing and introducing some wrasse, dither fish and bottom dwellers to my tank.

    Wrasse introduction order

    I hear about wrasse aggression, especially in regards to other wrasses, obviously I hear about this after I bought a 6line. Then I look into wrasses and fall in love with the look of two, and I'm trying to do my due diligence and actually plan these out as best as I can. I'm looking at a white...
