Pick 4 pairs of wrasses for under $200

[Reeferhead]

If you could have a tank with just 4 pairs of fairy or flasher wrasses which would you get? Must be found for under $200 a pair and must stay under 4" in length

Trying to get some ideas

TIA

flame, mccoskers/carpenter, lubbocks, and maybe blue flasher.

Nahacky
Hooded
8 line
Flame

1.)vanuatu Pylei fairy wrasse pair
2.)anampses chrysocephalus pair or trio
3.) McCroskii Pair
4.) Linespot or Blue flasher pair

Here are 3 pages of fairy wrasses, not sure how much each one would cost or if they are even all avaliable. But at least you can look through and find ones you like and then do a little research on them. http://www.sgreefclub.com/forum/topic/92345-the-worlds-fairy-wrasses-of-the-genus-cirrhilabrus/

Thanks, had that link bookmarked already. Certainly a great resource.

Sorry I was thinking £200 and not $200

Nahacky pair - £100
Flame pair - £225
Eight Line pair £65
Hooded - £200

Actually my LFS says he can get a pair of Flames for under $200

That's a great thread.

Thanks, but it can be bad as well after seeing so many other options.

yea they arent too expensive if you get them from the right source. Mine was given to me and just thrown into an order from a supplier I always use. Its great to know the right people in this hobby

yellow tailed flashers are very under-rated imo...
