WTB: Longfin Fairy Wrasse

[Drft626]

Hello I have been looking into buying a fairy wrasse for sometime, I believe I would be able to house one in my 40G it's been set up for a month now. I was wondering would I need my tank to be more established to be able to successfully house this wrasse. I was thinking about live aquaria but if someone knows where I could get one locally I would appreciate it, Thank you very much for viewing this thread.

I saw a couple of mccoskers fairy wrasses at pacific reef in fountain valley. They don't grow very large and are IMO the prettiest flasher wrasses.

i'd honestly wait a bit for everything to catch up in your tank. You had the tank running just a month ago, and you added a couple of fish and a CUC as well as some corals 2 weeks after that. Personally, Id give it a bit more time for your bio filters in the tank to stabilize and your rock/substrate to get a lil more populated. Whats that saying, only bad things happen quick in this hobby or something to that effect..

I'm not sure how much you want to spend but they were only going for around $25 or $30 each.

I guess I was thinking of another wrasse, That is a really nice one. I think I will have to wait according to what pyskokid said. I do have a 50Gallon fowlr tank I could probably put him in till my tank is more established. well anyway Thanks tran maybe Ill stop by that store and check them out.
