Just one. Managed to cancel the second. It looks a little underweight to me. So might not have been healthy to begin with.
Hopefully he pulls through and you can start fattening him up!

Well I loved Dr Reef after last time I bought from him but it looks like I got one wrong fish and the friend who bought me these fish just got 3 wrong fish. A PBT rather then a blue hippo, a flame angel rather then a flame hawk, and the wrong breed of clownfish…

I wouldnt mind a flame angel in place of the hawk... But, it's wrong to mess up an order that bad. They dont even remotely look 1% alike... unless he's going by color. A pbt is evil demon monster compared to a hippo.

And this does not look like a lemon peel mimic tang...

Nope. I don’t know my tangs but that is an angelfish.

Small correction only two of his 3 were wrong. My friend did get the blue hippo, he was wrong.

Does he have a lunate tail? Can’t see it well in the pic
Maybe? Its pattern looks lunate but I think its damaged so hard to tell. Why, what does it mean?

Yes, I'm not confident in ordering a lemon peel from there. But, might try a bristletooth once the other 2 are rehomed.
Knowing him you’ll get a chiseltooth wrasse instead.

Can't wait till July 13th to see what I get! I ordered an H. chrysus and getting the replacement M. bipartitis!

I understand the are some employees now picking the fish for shipping, so might want to give an employee review...

Forgot to say but it looks like one coral didn’t survive the temperature spike, this cheap green torch. Luckily only one and it honestly wasn’t doing well to begin with I think I left it under too high light for too long. IMG_7135.jpeg

Just confirming you got the right wrasse lol A lunate tail means you got a blue flasher, a straight edge tail means you got a linespot flasher.
