MY NEW FISH...and they work too (PICS)

[Tangwich]

For those that aren't familiar with my nano build, here is my latest entry..wanted to share my three great "Reef Fishes".

So I was watching t.v today and saw the funniest/weirdest thing, my green wrasse was scratching its mouth against the rocks...at least that's what it looked like but upon further inspection I noticed that it had a fairly large Pyramid snail in its mouth and was just cracking it against the rocks, it put a huge smile on my face as I ran to get my camera, here are the pics of the green wrasse with snail in mouth as well as my two last additions in only their second day in my tank. All are already eating frozen too

Sixline wrasse. I also later witnessed my sixline eating a small Pyramid snail

Lastly my Flame angel doing nothing constructive but looking beautiful, which works for me

From my experience, no comments after 20 views only means unhappy or angry RC forum crowd. Any negative comments on anything are appreciated as are positive comments so c'mon speak up.

Looks good man, glad your getting that Pyramid Snail problem fixed. Hey where is the video you promised me?

Oh and check my thread its called "Fairy and Flasher Wrasses"

What's there to be unhappy or angry about? The pics are great but it's late. You'll get more of a response in the morning.

Hey HS, I can't figure how to upload the video from my camcorder to my laptop, still working on that video..

Memeber, I don't really have any inverts in that tank so I think I should be ok with the green wrasse as I did think about that before putting him in there..

Thanks Chihuahua, response or no response, I'm one happy camper with my last additions to my tank.

Yes, as a representative of the pyramid snail union, I'm shocked and appalled at these photos. How dare you and that little green wrasse do this. I'm very angry!

And as the legal representation for "ZOA" (Zoanthids of America), I must argue that your members are a nuisance, a pest and unwanted members of our society

Crafty wrasses

Have kept MANY fish over the past 6 years, but have never had a Green Wrasse or a sixline due to their reputation of aggression so it has been very interesting watching their behavior over the past couple of days. Both spend all their time hunting through the rockworks for snails and other pests, which makes the movement very interesting. Is this normal behavior from those of you that have or have had these two fish?

 

[reefierone]

yes thats exactly what my green coris wrasse does

 

[Tangwich]

great pic Reefierone, is that a flame wrasse hiding in the rockwork?

 

[reefierone]

yeah

Thanks guys AND GAL ; ) These new fish are pretty common fish in the trade, but I am amazed at how interesting their behavior in my tank has been. The sixline and the green wrasse are so diligent and constantly hunting. I have never kept fish like these two. And meanwhile both my Flame Angel and my Tailspot blenny cruise the tank looking for algae snacks.
