Yellow Wrasse

[kjtroyer]

Does anyone have experience with a yellow wrasse? I noticed that on liveaquaria.com they list this fish as expert only and do not offer a guarantee. Does anyone know why?

If what you are refering to is a twinspot yellow wrasse, I've never really seen any other yellow wrasse. Be carefull, its hardy, I had it in my tank for long time , BUT it ate all my pods, shrimp, even blood shrimp that was twice his size! I tried to introduce peppermint shrimps to battle aptasia in my tank and they turned into a $60 snack in matter of seconds. He literally killed for the hell of it lol not even because he was hungry. I am sure every fish is different but this one happened to be very agressive.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info. Did it destroy your feather dusters and tube worms as well?
