Nice fish, no comment on where the specimen originated from but I was wondering where you got your acclimation box from?

Mike I got it as a package from dr. Chuck ( moonpod )

I can't see your images/video on this network, but I can't help but wonder why the origin is of the utmost importance to you? A stunner can be collected from any region; if what you see appeals to you, that's all that should ultimately matter.

It really doesn't matter sir,its just a matter of knowing since Scott's fairy variation are hard to determine.This is my colorful Scott's I ever had, if they said its a regular aussie its still my favorite Scott's ever.

How long do you keep them in the acclimation box for?

Until you're sure everyone will play nice.

Usually takes a few days.

I'll take that into consideration. I have a pretty big RedVelvet in my DT right now so I'm a little worried about my Labouti once he's made it through QT

A Red Devil you mean. Be careful with that one.

Yup mike
I had few Red velvet that kills 2 flame wrasse and terrorized all my other wrasse

I keep them until no aggression but always have a back up plan just in case. Released fish 1 hour or less before the lights goes off in case there are aggression after, so the new fish can rest if they are chase or if its bad you can easily catch the bully few hours later.

My lineatus show no aggression on my Scott's in the acclimation box but the next day it did and I can't catch it that night so I put one of my red margin in the acclimation box. My lineatus went after the red margin in the box and leave my Scott's alone.

Back to the Scott's, now that I've taken a look.

I'd say your colorful one is an Australian and the other with the dark fins probably via Fiji.

Indeed we are; C. rubrisquamis.

(C. luteovittatus is typically quite mild).

I now have 4 red velvets...first a pair, then another male...then the first female turned male, so I added another female... other smaller wrasses have been added after them...and I still haven't seen any problems or aggression...they really are colorful and active.
A couple of friends have recently added some after seeing mine, and are very happy with them.
