[Djbrandriff150]

Nice list of wrasses, do you keep a reef or FOWLR? If you keep a reef, how do the Rainbow and Red Coris behave? FYI...Reef Beauties has Timors for $37

Nice...thanks for sharing,,,how does the Red Coris behave in your reef? I've lost a Solon and Ruby Head Fairy to suicide, they both managed to find a way to wind up on my hood overnight

I actually had a ruby red fin and lubbocki, guess during a water change, which I noticed after I lost those two gorgeous fish, the male 6 line will literally chase them till they jump out, this time was chasing the naoko. Some say fish aren't smart, but yes every time lid is off for maintenance he begins his attacks from the bottom of the tank to make them jump out. Now while I do my water change I keep a hand in the tank making a circular motion to keep him at bay. I set the trap for him this morning, once I catch him, he's going to be the sumplord

6 lines are definitely spawns of the devil, had one before my reef in my FOWLR, never again

I purchased my first melanurus wrasse. My next wrasses would be yellow corris, cleaner and fairy wrasse.

nice....I love mine.....best personality of my wrasses, it thinks my hand is food, can't stick my hand in the tank without it going for it

The cure might be my wife hitting me in the head with a frying pan

Dragon loves to decorate his home every night with shells and frag plugs before he plunges in for the evening. All the wrasses constantly sift the sand looking for critters during the day, but only the dragon will re-decorate 30 minutes before lights out. Cleanup I crew I found I can only mainly keep mexican turbo snails anything else becomes quick snacks.

They are fine, 8 months in the tank no issues. Red coris, he's a juvenile still. I have noticed he hasn't been eating when the auto feeder goes off, yet he is still fat and chunky..... PS...extra empty snail and hermit shells. But I haven't seen him do it, the green coris, yea, he is definitely chomping on them. The yellow coris, i think its got the times for the AFS just right, he goes straight to it close to its dispensing time. I did however purchase all of them small, so they have been growing together.

As far as the Rainbow wrasse, he seems to be a model citizen, loved the colors, did minimal research, he seems to be the fish that will grow the biggest out of the wrasses i have, jury still out
