wrasse

All I can find online is that anampses tamarin wrasses eat crustaceans off of rocks. What kind of crustaceans? Wikipedia has nothing on this genus. I want to train mine to accept frozen food but I don’t even know where to start since I don’t know the diet it would naturally eat. Has anyone had...

Everything says to hatch the eggs first then add the live brine a little at a time as food. But what if I want a constant food supply for picky fish. Can I add eggs directly to the tank so they can pick them off as they hatch? I’m thinking of wrasses and filefish in particular.

So I jumped the gun on this one, I’ll admit. I just purchased a black back/china wrasse from my lfs and now I’m playing catch up. Not an excuse but I’ve never seen any store have one of these in stock before. Let alone a 5 inch specimen like I brought home. And it was only $45 so I really...

Hello all! I just got a new wrasse on 8/20. I already have a fairy wrasse and he is full grown. I added a female (about 3”) leopard wrasse in an acclimation box with sand and lots of sea lettuce (covered in pods and just extra hiding) she was in the box on the side of the tank for about a full...

I can’t really find a good answer, will a yellow coris wrasse move rocks around? I would t want them to fall, and would they move corals on the sand?

Im looking for some stocking for my biocube 32, and really love the look and the movement a lot of wrasses seem to add to tanks. Right now I have 2 adult clowns, and would like to also add a captive bred mandarin, OR yellow watchmen font along with some sort of wrasse if I can find one suitable...

Hi all, I’ve been running my tank for about a year and a half. just looking for some opinions and experience on fish stocking. I’m deciding on what fish to add to my 65 gal mixed reef tank. My current stock includes in order of introduction to the tank: 1. Fire goby 2. 2 false perc Clowns 3...

I have had a watchman goby and a six line wrasse living together in a 32 gallon aquarium for two months. I just saw the wrasse attacking the goby. The wrasse isn’t bugging my other fish. Do I need to rehome the wrasse, or is there something else I could try? Water parameters are stable, only...

Hey everyone, just thought I’d share some more photos of my aquarium. stocked with 2 ocellaris clowns, 1 pink skunk clown, 1 blunt head wrasse, 1 cleaner shrimp, various clean up crew. Corals are Kenya Tree, Bubble Tip Anemone, Pulsing Xenia, Green star polyps, devilsfinger, forest fire...

So I am looking to add a wrasse to my Waterbox 130.4. Needs to be... -reef safe (I have mostly LPS with some SPS) -invert safe (I have a variety of snails and a blood red fire shrimp) -not overly shy (many of the fish I have only show themselves to eat, e.g,, royal gramma, purple firefish)...

anyone know of a good LFS to buy Wrasses from? I am looking for a colorful fairy wrasse. Only ones I have seen at my LFS are the Cleaner Wrasse, Four-Line and Six-Lines.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted! Just thought I’d share a few photos of my 26 Gallon. Thanks to the advice from a few of you my aquarium has never looked better!

Looking for this little guy... Anyone selling a healthy one? I'm hoping to see a picture and a video of it eating if possible. Thanks!

Looking to sell an XL Lunar Wrasse. Real healthy and active swimmer in reef tank. Breaking down tank because we are moving. These fish have the reputation for being aggressive but this one is actually rather docile. Had two clowns with him and some other peaceful fish with no issues...

I'm super excited to add another fish to the tank. And I'm even more excited to add this fish because I think they're so beautiful. Anyone else out there have one? Please post your pics below and how long you've had your fishy. :)

Are there any wrasse that would be reef and invert safe? I do have shrimp.

I have a run-of-the-mill clownfish in QT with a pink margin fairy wrasse. They've been in there for almost three weeks. From the get go, I've had them dosed with ParaGuard despite neither showing any symptoms upon arrival. I've also fed them frozen food soaked with Seachem's Focus, KanaPlex, and...

I ordered a couple of fish from LiveAquaria: an ORA Picasso Clownfish and a Diver's Den Red Head Solon Fairy Wrasse. This was my first time ordering from Diver's Den. The wrasse arrived this morning with a white spot at the top front of its dorsal fin which I noticed while drip acclimating for...

Ive got two little clams in my tank and over night one of the clams appears to have opened up so wide it split in two. My second clam looks just like it did yesterday but im now worried that he may be next for what effected the first. Had both clams for about 3 months now, they're my first clams...

My Christmas wrasse is in the tank! I’ve been searching for one for months and he has just finished quarantine.

Thank you first off for reading and your possible help in this situation! I am getting a 125gal set up. Right now just going over some fish just so I can have a mock plan for the future. Will not be getting any fish till at least 2 months or more from now, as I will be doing a very deep clean...

Just got this Christmas wrasse early this week. He’s been in QT for a few days now and I noticed some slight discoloration on his side. Currently feeding him medicated food daily (API GC + Focus + Selcon). He’s had normal poop, swimming and eating normally. Anything to be worried about? Should I...

Update 2021-02-08, tank upgrade on page 9! Below this line is the start of the 35 gallon cube, the Reefer 250 transfer and build starts at page 9! ————————————————— Hey! Two years ago I made my first attempt at keeping a reef at home. That time I went with a 13g cube with a HOB filter and I...

Hi everyone, hope you’re all doing well. I have a question if been meaning to ask for a while, I’ve been wondering how you guys may offset this issue. How do you keep your reef clean if you have for example a puffer fish that loves eating your clean up crew? Is there a way you can maintain a...
