I don't know what it is, but I like it!...unfortunately odds are, if it's that 'cute' as a juvi...it's gonna be a big, mean MF!

OK Guys.. I just landed myself a Lennardi Wrasse! I think I can officially join this club!
The beautiful female has been swimming around since I put it inside my DT! Hasn't went hiding yet.. a truly beautiful fish!
That fish is stunning! I want to find one of those to put in my tank. Congrats on the awesome pick up. :thumbsup:

Here is a wrasse I purchaed today. I love Wrasses and this is my third. I usually research the fish first but Ive never seen this one before and I was so excited I forgot to write his name down.
1) is he rare
2) can you identify him for me please.
He set me back $60.
PS - He buries himself in the substrate and takes big mouth fulls of it and spits it out.

Oops.
albano, very sorry for the typo and for some reason I forgot to subscribe this thread and didn't see your response till I just came across this thread again.
I think I shot the idea of having female flame wrasse and concentrate with getting a trio of hooded fairy wrasse. Thanks for your info.
I can't speak for the other 100,000+ members here...but I believe you! :rolleye1:
I learned the hard way over numerous knee jerk purchases in the past. I only have 4 fish in my tank and 3 are wrasses. Im looking to give up the SNow Flake eel because I want a species specific tank being Wrasse only. I love them.
But yes, I understand your sentiment. :beer:
Thank You Fishnerd!! ANy specific reasons the survival rate is short?

just by the looks of the fish i would think its stress from collection and shipping and he looks like one that wounds their mouth from the skittishness caused from this stress .
