Dios Walker, I'm sorry. Such a painful decision no matter what. Thinking of you.

Is that one of those new fangled flying cars?

Is that one of those new fangled flying cars?

Or maybe it's one of those self driving ones that lost control.

Carpenter's Flasher Wrasse
McCosker's Flasher Wrasse

The blueside and the solar are in the same Cyanopleura complex, which increases the chances that they become hostile to one another:

You may wish to think of another semi-aggressive fairy from a different complex, instead. Any other options available?

How about a leopard wrasse?

YES! To a leopard. They are absolute joys to have in a tank. The major issue is shipping. They don't do well during shipping. If you are ordering it shipped, I would speak directly to the shipper and ask them to make a special case and ship the leopard wrasse in a larger volume bag with about 2inches of new sand in it. The leopard will hide in the sand and might just make it to your tank. I would also prepare a "landing pad" tank that you can quickly adjust down the salinity to get it exactly the same as the bag water. Then I would float the bag to temp acclimate, and the. Just cut the top of the bag off and let the bag sink to the bottom. Leopard may stay in the bag sand, but once it comes out you can remove the bag. Best to have a karge dish with sand in the landing pad as well or completely cover with sand--I just covered the bottom of an Evo to receive mine. Then slowly raise salinity over a few to several days while the leopards gets more comfortable and starts to eat. Then transfer to the tank is easy, as you scoop it out of the sand and bring it close to you DT's sand bed--it will go straight into the sand but come out to explore when it's ready.

Or maybe a melanarus?

Melanurus likely easier to get alive and in your tank than a leopard, but they are sometimes considered more aggressive--some not--and may target your snails/crabs. Leopards are quite peaceful, usually, just harder to get alive and into your tank.

They will all go in my QT before they do into my DT but I could put a dish of sand in the QT for it.

I think I will try the leopard as I don't want to take the chance of the Mel going after my cuc.

I'm sure it would appreciate an inch or two of sand!

They will be arriving Friday I had a store credit that covered most of the cost where I had DOA's from my last order because FedEx delivered it a day later than they should have.
