Thanks Matt and everyone at the Coral Reef once again.
Pink Margin Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus rubrimarginatus). :dance: I think it is a male, but I am not 100% positive. All the pics I have seen, the makes have a yellow "cap" on their head. Really nice fish i think. :)

I read that Pink Margin Wrasse can get to be 4-5 inches, and that they jump. Very pretty fish. Oh, if a male -- rugged and tough.

All correct. They jump just like the other wrasses i have read. I double checked my canopy before I put him in there. The only place they could jump is into my overflow. That would not cause any damage at all, and that is blocked off from the outside. I already have 2 other wrasses in my tank, and my canopy is closed. He is a male- I looked up the description and the other pictures. I would think that it is more like 5-5.5 inches. He is a little above 4 inches, and is a great addition to the tank. :)
 
It took you 2 weeks to respond with that? You are losing your touch Randy. :)

By my count it was 6 days... Its not my fault you posted it in the middle of finals... I have been busy studying and then stringing lights... :D

Janie~ Beautiful fish... Good luck with him... If they make it through the first few weeks, they usually do fine... Macropharyngodon just don't ship and handle transitions well...
 
Just an update on the Loepard wrass, now named Flag...
Doing great, eats anything I give him, doesn't bother anything. He thinks he's a clown, always hangs out with Fred and Ginger the percs. My Magenta Dottyback harassed him the first couple of days, but doesn't bother. He's been a really neat addition.

That's cool to know Janie! I have a customer interested in one of those. Looks like yours is a male?
