Mystery Wrasse, Psuedochromi, Fairy Wrasse

I have a few small fishes I want to sell, and the pseudochromi because it keeps picking on my chromis. Also clearing out a lot of the stuff I dont want for the next phase in reefing. Some have been bagged for pictures, all of the fishes are in my QT tank during this time.

$125 Mystery Wrasse is 2.5-3.5" eating healthy, doesnt fight with the pseudochromi. Reef safe, calm and peaceful, argues with the psuedochromi sometimes.






took pictures with a camera phone, didnt come out too well. Because the object was moving.

$20 Pseudochromi - Semi-Aggressive , make sure you dont have a lot of fish, or rockwork in your tank. This guy is mean. The color explains a lot. Hes about 3"+ nice and plump, eats a lot. Took me a very very long time to get him out of a 130g tank.
No Picture

$20 Blue Sided Fairy Wrasse - 4-5"


$20 Fairy Wrasse with 2 Golden Lines on the side, and redish coloring.


I can ship, the supplies I use are KORDON BAGS - Oxygen, water breatheable bags for the fish that are shipped. If you dont know what Kordon bags are, look it up. Its made specifically for fish to be shipped overseas.

Buy them all for $160

email me with any questions only

Yea, the fairy wrasse looks like that.

Took the pictures with an iPhone, who would knew it would turn out so well, even though the fish was moving.

A few inquiries, but nothing yet.

I would love to trade a mystery wrasse for a Sohal TANG!

Please do not lowball me, $125 is actually really cheap, considering the availability and size.

Ok for those asking for the larger size.

I am only trading it for a Sohal Tang, having such a large tank, its rare that I see these tiny fishes.

But if you really want the larger Mystery Wrasse my asking price is $165 and hes 3-4" Maybe more definately a lot bigger than the small one, hes really fat and eats like a pig. I have to toss in 4 blocks of mysis shrimp to satisfy his hunger. Its really shared with everyone else though

Other than that heres the break down.

Small Mystery Wrasse $125
Larger Mystery Wrasse $165 ( Preferably Trade for a Sohal Tang - But money can buy many fishes )
Psuedochromi $20
Carpenter Wrasse $20
Blue Sided Wrasse $20

Nothing sold yet, a lot of people expressing interest only.

A fish is not a coral, fish don't shrink and contract up to 1" depending on whether its day or night. It is misleading to say that it is a 2-3" fish you're selling and let us guess if its closer to 2" or 3".

I have at least 9 different types of wrasses and I have yet to observe them going through size changes depending on the time of day.
I think $125 is a good price for a 3" mystery, but only a fair price for a 2" mystery.

I'm not trying to ruin your thread, but if I'm going to spend good money on a fish, I want to know exactly what I'm getting and not have to guess at it.

Well sorry for not consulting it with me personally, and my apologies for those with a weak heart in sarcasm.

I specified everything I could, and provided pictures as far as my eyes could see.

Either you want it, or you dont so please do not ruin this for me or anyone else.

Even if you can get it somewhere else, please do not bring it up, I dont need to know about it.

Just for the record I pulled the fish out and measured at 2.5 the larger ones are 3.5 close to 4"

I repeat

Small Mystery Wrasse 2.5+
Larger Mystery Wrasse 3.5" Close to 4"

I hope this clarifies it for everyone, and please do not cause any friction here.

Lets stick to the thread please.

I still want to sell these

Don't anyone hesitate to buy from only4fudge. I bought some corals from him awhile ago and he was excellent to deal. He even checked back on them a few times.

I am very tempted myself. I'm only putting one fish in my 20L reef and I want it to be an eye catcher. I'm scared as to what s/h would be to the east coast.

I got an overnight fed ex order of fish that cost 63.00 from Seattle WA to FL.

Yep! It's expensive, unfortunately.
