Added an orange back wrasse today...

Well as the title says...I added him and immediately my ruby head wrasse attacked him. Luckily I was able to net him and put him into an isolation tank that I had on hand. Not sure where it goes from here.

Give it a few days then for sale. Anytime you add anew fish there's a good tank they'll get beat on initially. I just added a genicanthus angel and for a day he was a whipping boy, even lost part of a streamer. She's good now...
 
Always use an acclimation box, especially when adding new wrasses to a tank with other wrasses...
Might not be a problem for long...not many people, that I know, have had any success keeping orangebacks long term.
