Bump because I'd like some info also.

Does anyone have a good chart of good wrasse combos?

Or even a decent care sheet for these guys?

Or even a halfway decent description of how they do with cleaner crew type critters? (i.e. shrimp, stars, snails)

My tank is home to 22 different wrasses. Mostly fairiess, 2 tamarins (red & yellow tail) mystery and cleaner.
anthias, trigger, regal angel, watanabie, purple, regal tang, huge rabbitfish.

A couple more shots. I got a new camera so bare with me.

AWESOME tank! What is the most colorful and the wrasse that you like the best? I am wanting to get a small group of wrasses with lots of color... pinks and reds

If you want a harem, the flame wrasses are terrific. There is a nice picture above of a supermale flame.

Thank you, As said above, the one wrasse that shows the best color is the flame wrasse, most of the rest tend to lose their brilliance. But all are beautiful fish.

So, Wrasse-meisters...what is a good body count for a 90g?

What would be a safe number of types to have?

 

[buzzbombtom]

run a good skimmer and uv. and you can run quite a few, really those two open up lots of doors for you.

Depends on your other stock.

Bradleyj could you elaborate on the lid you have over so many beautiful fish?

Sure! It's (IMO) the only way to keep these jumpers wet and alive.
Its made out of window screen framing and outdoor garden netting. All of the material can be found at Lowes or Home Depot and is very easy to assemble.

Here is where it explains it in detail.

I doubled up the netting because the smaller wrasses were still getting through, but since then, its all been good.
