I wish these made it to the Left coast.

Most shops out here have never even heard of them.

And that’s why they aren’t on west coast. Lfs don’t want to try or bring in anything new. West coast is always behind. Some 3 hours and others decades lol

i cant think said:
did they find out what it was?

it was an Anampses but I didn’t pay much attention to see witch one. I lost interest after they dug up the poor thing

It's pretty wrasse barren out here. I can get just about anything else same day if I want to take the time calling all the shops within my area. Nobody wrasses .

Wonder how big of a tank you’d need for one…

14" if you treat it right and it gets to grow to its full potential.

I would say at least an 8' tank. Need to give it plenty of room or it may hurt things......

I don't know... some specimens might live in that pico reef just fine

Hey, I finally have the first chance to spam a picture of a wrasse in my 10g QT:
White-belly wrasse (Halichoeres leucoxanthus)

(I know, the photography is not great from my tablet, but I forgot the cord for my camera at home today, so I can't transfer the pictures to the computer...)
