DD Macropharyngodon lapillus- who bought it?

[nonimmigrant]

Wait wait I wish I got the leopard..I wish!! He? Was beautiful!! Wow. But I did grab the tamarins at about 6:00 from a bathroom stall out to dinner with my better half and her parents:-x I guess that's what you do when ur a wrasse addict!

Clandestinely buying fish from the can?! You, my friend, are addicted well beyond even me. I thought going to HK every month for stuff and not telling the wife that that fish she just saw in QT was not really "new" was bad enough LOL.

It was me.

It was me.

I bought that leopard wrasse. I will post pictures. I was clicking so fast I didnt realize how large it was, but that is probably a good thing. It is coming on Wednesday. I have a pair of Xenojulis wrasses that I hope cause no issues and a pair of Anampses melanurus, which shouldn't pay it any attention. Tank is 300+ gallons so should be fine.

you are such a sneaky guy!! You find your way into purchasing some of the greatest fish available to us. I don't know how you always manage to keep track of all these different websites and the minute that they put their fish up for sale on their website! sheeeesh:lolspin:

I'm glad you are going to post pics because that wrasse is too beautiful to not share pics! Lucky you!

I made a critical mistake, I had it in my cart, and then went back to look again at those tamarins. Big mistake. Came back and the leopard was gone.. wont do that again. LOL

I didn't even know until it was sold, so disappointed in myself.

 

[reefjunkie42]

i remember the last time DD had a kwazulu fairy wrasse I was being redirected back from the PP website and when i got back for confirmation the cart was empty. its a humbling feeling to say the least. this is a truly beautiful leopard I cant wait to see pics!

 

[Arkayology]

Where are the pics of the leopard wrasse? You cannot buy something that stunning and keep it to yourself!

 

[iamwrasseman]

i had one of the jeweled wrasses for four or five years and one day he just disappeared . he was a very good community fish and acted very much like a dragon wrasse a bit boisterous but the beauty quickly overcome its beast fullness ?

 

[Pylos]

What a find, I didn't even know lapillus existed before stumbling on this thread. Another one for the wish list. Out of curiosity what are the price on these when they come up on DD?

 

[iamwrasseman]

if im not mistaken the one i saw on DD was under $50 a year ago

 

[pacislandaqua]

how much did these go for?

 

[iamwrasseman]

you may want to PM the owner "reefjunkie42" and they may tell you what they paid unless they are still subscribed to this tread as its been a couple of months since they got them .o cant recall them being insanely priced ?

 

[jnc914]

Still no pics?

 

[LobsterOfJustice]

PIA has one of these in stock

 

[Rogger Castells]

How much was it? I can't see the LA post

 

[aandfsoccr04]

Still no pictures?

Still no pictures?

I'm thinking if none appeared within a year, there's probably a reason...

Interesting note on this species; per FishBase it was re-classified as a Halichoeres species about 6 months ago.
