my new baby... AKA The Café

[Mschmidt]

Ahh, yes. I remember this textbook well, though I believe I had like the 6th or 7th edition. Also had to read The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks for that class.

So far it's just foundational but I expect it to be more difficult when I actually get to the case law stuff. Also for the price I expected something more than card stock for the cover. But now I'm just complaining.

It's a beautiful morning. Happy fri yay

The cleaner will either get in with everybody or annoy everybody. Is it captive bred?

The two Halichoeres are both of the more if not most aggressive Halichoeres and could well fight. How big is the green?

chloropterus tends to get more aggressive with age/size, no? @i cant think had one.

Yeah
Unfortunately they get quite big and I think his even started going after other fish.

I’ve had the green for 4 or 5 years now so an adult. Maybe just add the cleaner then. My new koi tang has been following my green wrasse around all day and acts like it wants it to be cleaned by the wrasse

I suggest captive bred cleaner wrasse or you could get a hogfish as they also clean other fish.

 

[MrsBugmaster]

Mine is about 5” and I just googled him and apparently can get to 8”. Would of thought by now it would be full grown

Oh I didn’t know hogfish would clean. Any specific one you’d recommend?

Fish rarely reach full size in captivity

Oh I didn’t know hogfish would clean. Any specific one you’d recommend?

I have a lyretail, Bodianus anthoides which is a medium sized species and may be too large for you. It is also uncommon.

The smaller species like the twinspot or the Izu would work for most tanks
B bimaculatus
B izuensis
B sepiacaudus
B pulchellus
Are all the smaller species in my book.

These guys will push their life span to 7-10 years so it’s only half way through its life. Sounds like we got ours around the same time.
Mine is now in his 4-5th year and 6 inches, he does seem to be growing still, just not as fast as he did when he was half an inch long and quickly got to 2 inches then doubled over the next year or 2.

Yeah

I blamed mine for the death of my 1st Kaleidos Pencil Wrasse then discovered after introducing my second it was my Cleaner Wrasse.
Now, I then had to remove him from the tank he was placed into to QT for fluke. He then proceeded to kill 2 Blue Star Leopard Wrasses in that tank so he is definitely a wrasse I will keep on his own.

Thanks for your experience. Wow , sorry it killed some of your others. Guess I’ll just keep the one. My tank is peaceful again after removing two fish.

Got any torches?
Here’s my newest 2.
