Fairy wrasse ID

They need to get these guys a new name, that whole lanceolatus thing confuses people, haha. Worked out well for you though, nice grab.
 
beautiful.

the pintails are coming in bigger and brighter with each catch. RVS is really killing it.

i'm finally getting brunneus this tuesday :-) it's been a long wait.
 
Here is my Black Friday purchase!!! 2 more Pintail Wrasses (mislabeled as Roseafascia), but priced at $120, figured they were still a great deal!

That's what most places are now labeling them as. I have also seen them labeled as rose banded fairy wrasses as well. Quality Marine lists them under both names mentioned above as well. They don't use lancealtous at all for this wrasse. I'm not sure if the scientific name has actually changed or if lfs's and wholesalers are pushing these names now to clear up any confusion. How many of these were left up there Albano?

They rec'd 5 in this shipment...3 males (1st time that they got males) and 2 juvi/females. 1 customer took a pair, and I took the other 2 males (I already had the 2 females), so 1 juvi was left. I might run down and grab it today... But it seems like they will be more available in the future

Michael/NYA has also been getting them in

They sold the last one about an hr after you got yours, i was too far behind to get it.

I went to greenwich aquaria after for consolation. They have a male/ female pintail pr and a male lunatus.
