Reef Wrasse Pics

I missed the POTM but I still wanted to share my favorite reef wrasse

[snfkotara]

This is my male Golden Rhombiod Wrasse. I love these wrasses, oh come on I love all wrasses.

I am susprised you were able to narrow it down to just one ;)

[snfkotara]

He likes to swim alone by these rocks and when he see me he will come out and watch me to see if im going to feed him.

man i want that fish. i really don't like the red wrasses. i primarily stick to the cirrhilabrus genus of wrasse's mostly greens and blues.

we have only had one rhomboid come in to a lfs here in c.c.. and i am talking years. and it jumped. it died before anyone had chance to come look at it. do they show up regularly in s.a.?

no you have to special order them. They are to expensive and well i would say delicate to acclimate to lfs tank with all the in and outs that would really stress them and be a big lose for the fish store. I will meet them as soon as they get them from the air port so they don't have to go in their system just to be bagged again and then acclimated to mine. I love all wrasses the more color or exotic even better.

i tend to do this with all my fish i have a way better success rate with them living plus the stores i go to offer 25% off if taken in bag ( on shipping day)

Great photo... gorgeous fish! Thanks for sharing.

Yes...very beautiful! What tank is he in?

[snfkotara]

He is in my 90 gal tank which at the time is my main tank. All of my wrasses are in this tank.
