Let's see your rare wrasses!!!!

[huskerreef]

PIA assisted me with both my Japan shipments and got Johnsoni pair from him as well. All have done great. Of course he promised me Bellae's to but obviously somebody beat me to it! What an awesome fish that I can't wait to get some day. Post some more pics soon.

Not rare but I thought I would show off my male Flame that I got from PIA. I really have to stop buying fish long enough to get a good camera.

So, I lied PIA had a great deal on a Flame trio, so I added to my order. I can't wait for my bigger tank so I can get more

I don't think it counts as "rare" but since I haven't seen any others on here I figured I'd post a picture of my Orange Back Fairy Wrasse.

 

[bradleyj]

Orangebacks are beautiful wrasses.
