Just got a Mystery Wrasse

[Cody Ray]

At least that is what it looks like, never actually seen one in person. Found it at a Petco! They got it as an assorted fairy wrasse and sold it for $19.99. Obviously I would have to be a complete idiot not to pick 'em up at that price. Too bad he/she can't stay in my 7.5gallon For now its in quarantine. Once the pics upload from my camera phone I will post them!

so what are your plans for him? Are you going to setup a bigger tank?

Man, I won't even say what I paid for the one I have. Good deal.

Make sure to keep a lid on whatever tank he is in/ends up in. Mine has jumped twice now, one time the cat found him and starting crying....not kidding. Threw him back in and hoped for the best...hes still here :spin1:

Yes, that is a Mystery Wrasse. Great bargain! He may eat all your shrimp though... :0)

They are not as peaceful like a Fairy Wrasse. fairy Wrasse usually don't jump as long as they are not stressed.

Bought a fairy wrasse from the same assorted wrasse sale they had, they swapped it for a yellow watchman goby that was on sale same price( watchman didn't make it.

I have been looking around the house for something to use as a lid. Didn't expect to get anything so when I came home I had to setup a quicky QT so I used an ADA tank :spin3: The light fixture covers about 1/3 of the top so I used 2 yakisoba containers to cover the rest.

sometimes Petco will have a steal in the assorted tanks. good deal! lovely looking fish! now I must watch my local petco for the same deal :lol2:
