I have black currently and I’m too short to see the top of my tank so it doesn’t bother me. I think the white would let more light in? I don’t know...
I was told it’s a carpenters flasher and a C. solorensis. I’m going to ask in the wrasse ID thread when I can get good pictures. The carpenters is quite small and sunk to the bottom when I put them in...it basically crawled to a rock; I was sure he wouldn’t be there by morning but both new fish are out and ate quite a bit in both feeding so far!! My starry blenny was the lone fish in this tank for over a year and he’s quite upset about new roommates. He’s been perched on the gyre all morning and puffing up at me. Kraken is doing great, eats well and comes out often so I can see all her beauty. All of her legs are growing back the tips so I think she’s going to be fine!
Love the name Kraken, and I'm glad she's doing well! Does the C. solorenis have a blue body and red/yellow head? I used to have a solon fairy wrasse. Great fish and I would add again for sure! It's not unusual at all for the flashers to act "dead" when they're put in the tank. My flasher hid in the rock for probably a month. How many gallons is your tank?...since you don't have an ahem...tank build...starfish build thread...;Hilarious
