My pair of Cirrhilabrus johnsoni

[jdareef]

I got these 2 from NY Aquatic. NYA did an excellent job packaging these guys up. Kudos to them. These guys are tiny! To give you an idea, that is 1" PVC in the acclimation box.
Thanks for looking,
Joseph

They are small aren't they.
I hope you the best with them. I was wondering who got them. Glad to see you did.

the pair I got were pretty tiny as well, a lot smaller than most wrasses I have gotten. Still a pretty sweet fish.

Thanks Brad, luckily you threw me a few pointers before they got here!

Thank you! Yes many pictures to come. Won't be able to get any pics of them free swimming in the DT for about a week or so until they are adjusted to their new environment and tank mates, so bear with me.

They are pretty sweet! How long have you had yours?

Yes, 3 hours after acclimation they quickly accepted a mixture of Rod's food, PE Mysis Shrimp, and Arcti-pods, all soaked in Brightwell Aquatics liquid garlic.

Thanks! I will update as often as possible. I won't have any free-swimming pics for at least a week though so please bear with me.

Update:

Well they have been released into the DT and are doing very well. My McCosker's moderately harassed the male johnsoni, mostly pursuit, I saw maybe one or two tail nips. They seem to have sorted things out though. Here's a few teaser pics, these buggers are small and swift, so getting a decent picture isn't the easiest task in the world:
