My First Wrasse **Pics**

Here is my first wrasse, a mystery wrasse that I got yesterday. He is by far the most beautiful fish I have ever owned. He sure wasn't easy to get a clear picture of

Yeah, they don't sit still for long, do they? Gorgeous fish. Might have to get one myself!

sweetrav18, the store I got it at The Fish Guys. You could give them a call and talk to Jeff (248-960-8800). If you're in Chicago they're only probably a 3 hour drive from you. Wouldn't be bad for a saturday trip? They have some of the best coral selection in the midwest and they're getting a new shipment of aussie acans early next week

Very good price for sure. I picked one up today for $98. By far my favorite wrasse and fish. Not to long ago I lost one to carpet surfing. I had to pick another one up.

Live Aquaria has some very nice looking ones! But your paying top dollars for those

Oooh, me like, me like very much! Although I don't think South Africa's LFS get such exotic fish
