It's been alone in the sump for a couple of months. I don't know if I can catch any of the other fish without removing most of the rocks.
That's about where I am with mine... I have just under 2 weeks.

I'm not jealous at all... :loudly-crying-face:
Shut up! You win everything ;) :face-with-tears-of-joy:.

For those who don't stalk every giveaway on R2R, I just won a $250 Dr. Reef credit. I am super excited, even though I know Dr. Reef is incapable of IDing wrasse. I don't care. A mystery wrasse is just as good, IMO (I don't mean an actual mystery wrasse aka Pseudocheilinus whateveritisus obviously). Point is his fish tend to be healthy which is what I care about most.

I'm sure there's a wrasse for that.

He's 2 for 2 with me, but he's earned a bit of a reputation. I believe one guy bought four different flasher wrasse and got four different flasher wrasse, which is pretty incredible.

It might be the trusted staff and not him directly. Or, the omporters labels

All of mybawesome fish sales came from perco because the labels on the bag said "misc anthia, angel, wrasses" going to petco was like winning bingo

Now, to cut this list down, Angel would be for the other tank. I don't want anything I can easily get from my LFS. The Meleagris is my favorite leopard, as you all know, but $200 is very steep. Lubbocks is maybe another to cut as I can get them anywhere, and their appearance varies so much that I prefer to pick my own out at an LFS. I'd like a C gaimard but the only sell juveniles and I want a roughly 4" female.
