Help me pick out a new wrasse!

[reefknight]

A friend of mine has a Mystery wrasse. Colorful, energenic, helpful in removing those unwanted pests, peaceful. What more could you want?

Oh, except for maybe a lower price tag!

A corry warase is a poor choice for a reef fellas.

It eats feather dusters and nips at polyps.
Not to mention crabs and shrimp.

Are you talking about the coris wrasse?

Mine is a model citizen. Dosen't bother a single thing. I've got just about a little of everything in the tank and he dosen't nip at anything. Here's an old pick of him when he was first starting to change colors to adult.

I 2nd the vote for Halicoeres wrasses. Had a melanarus for some time, it kept the tank pristine from the bad stuff while leaving my shrimp & tube worms alone. Trying to decide on what my next one will be. I really want a leopard, but getting a healthy specimen in isn't the easiest thing.
