My green wrasse was the best until he died. We was always waiting for a new coral so he can eat all the little bugs from it!! Great worker!! Mike Delgado has the ultimate green wrasse.

I have two. They are identical personalities with different colors. They get along well, are very active, never hide, eat anything (except my inverts!) and are reef safe.
What are they? Secrative wrasse and Mystery wrasse. I recommend them to all.

The first fish that ever got me into keeping saltwater tanks was a green bird wrasse that I saw while eating at a Rainforest Cafe. But I also like the dragon wrasse. I got one for my mom when I was living in Jersey. Super cute, but it spent most of it's time under the sand of course.

It is a Mystery (wrasse) why anyone would like anything else... Kristy does really like her clown fairy wrasse. Boo six lines, ours needs to go. If only we could catch him. -Mike

i never see the mystery wrasse going after my peppermint shrimps but last night i was redoing my rock and gluing new frags and i took a rock out and threw a shrimp that was still on the rock back in and BAM the mystery got him ... i was like i thought they weren't suppose to eat them lol


i loved my brown bird wrasse best personality out of any fish but i couldn't deal with him eating 10 bucks worth of crabs/snails/shrimp in a day

best friends

that's a melanurus wrasse. if you ever have some pests this is the guy to get it, he's very thorough and OCD when it comes to hunting. he's reef safe as far as corals go, but he wont eat snails but will pick on hermit crabs. my melanurus eats flakes, pellets, frozen food and sometimes nori algae sheets when he sees the other fish eating them, otherwise he'll be hunting until an hour before lights out

I have always loved the Harlequin Tuskfish. Eventually I will get another one, after I get a BIGGER tank of course :wink_smile:http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e313/fleshjunkie/Fish/wrasse-harlequin20tuskfish04450012.jpg

Many favorites including Hoeven's wrasse. Great guard dog! I often turn the pumps off so he can work over all the rocks.
