I've never owned one before but I've read somewhere they are quite peaceful compared to other fairies.Does anyone know what the temperament of the Brunneus is like? Do they play nice with other fairies?
The brunneus will be the most demure out of that list, and naokoae can be pretty aggressive. Taking the naokoae out and returning it to the tank after the brunneus settles is a good idea.I've never owned one before but I've read somewhere they are quite peaceful compared to other fairies.
It's going to be the last fish I add. I'm a little worried because the last fish I added was a Naoko's, which was supposed to be my last fish but I have a fish problem. If there are fights I'm going to buy a lid for my frag tanks and someone will get banished. I haven't had any aggression issues so far but I'm actually considering pulling the Naoko's from the tank for as month or two to try and reset the order in which they are added. Don't know if they will help anything.
This is the tank it's going in and the order in which they were added, I hope there are no fights.

I ordered this fish from LA as a female/juvenile H. biocellatus but it looks more like a male or transitioning male to me? TJ/Hunter?
It still has the spots on the dorsal, so def not a male yet. Mine came in looking just like yours; it took about 6 months before it became a male.
It is a male, but not a terminal phase male. The green stripes are different as a female and there is one more occelli.. The occelli are the last to go for terminal phase.I ordered this fish from LA as a female/juvenile H. biocellatus but it looks more like a male or transitioning male to me? TJ/Hunter?
Looks to be a duncan coral, less potent sting than an anemone.The anemone doesn't bother him/her?

The female brunneus isn't black. It has a goldfish orange hue to it and doesn't sport the crescent tail yet either. They are quite distinctive from other wrasses and definitely makes of the same species. They are also quite passive as stated above. I've had multiples with other wrasses and they aren't aggressive by any means

I was thinking of this guy, and one I saw at a different online vendor that looked to have red-purple/green hues. Cool fish regardless [emoji41]
