My Rhomboid Pair

A friend of mine was closing out his tank and had a Rhomboid pair that he made an awesome deal on 6 months ago. I have them in QT until my 170 cube is finished. Finally I have one of my favorite fish.... Errrrrr 2

Beautiful.
I love mine. He's very personable and stoic and he's probably near the end of my wrasse pecking order.
 
The swim bladder issue has been the thing that has always kept me from pulling the trigger on Rhomboids. So on top of a could not pass it up price, the big risk was removed.


Congrats! One of my favorite fish and you won't have to worry about swim bladder issues too. Nice score.
 
nice coloring on the fishes, however I think the female is transitioning into a sub-male. I have a pair and the female is a blue head with white body in color, yours turned golden already so you might just have 2 males. Still cool as long as they don't fight.
 
The coloring has been changing a bit on both of them. I have chalked it up to getting themselves acclimated to the new QT. Time will tell I suppose

I suspect my smaller Rhomboid has turned male. I may have to split them up until my bigger tank is ready. Today the smaller one started chasing the larger one around non-stop

You were spot on. We'll see what happens.
