Labouti Wrasse

[reefwisher]

Has anybody have expierence with this wrasse and how do you like them? I am looking to put a wrasse in my 40 gal breeder with my solar wrasse. It will be either a mystery wrasse or the labouti. All I have is a solar wrasse in my tank and it will only be that one and one of the other 2.

Mine got big pretty quick. I wouldn't put it in a 40b. Mine fly around my tank in a 150. I'm actually getting him to a buddy of mine with a bigger tank

either will get big, and either MAY get aggressive...I have about 30 wrasses now, but I don't think I'll be trying another Labouti, but I may replace my mystery with a smaller mystery
Is your tank covered?

My tank is covered. I lost my mystery wrasse a few night ago from jumping out through a whole that had a piece of egg crate on it. he must have knock the egg crate off then jump out. I figured it would hold the solar and mystery in, wrong. I now got the eggcrate glued over the hole. looking for either to put a labouti or another mystery in.

Eggcrates are not small enough to hold fish in. You'll need a smaller mesh
