WTB Mystery or Radiant Wrasse

Hey,
Anybody have a mystery, radiant, or any other cool wrasse for sale? Or anybody know of a store that has a healthy one for sale?
I'd really like a mystery but they seem hard to find lately.
Thanks,

I had a radiant i would have sold you....it died. I read that you have to intice them with live mysis or shrimp and stuff to get it to eat. Plus they like to bury themselves in the sand...barely ever saw him.

Located in Tustin/Irvine area.
Damn, ventura county is practically across the country for me. lol

That sucks guitarfreak. I want to make sure the one i get is eat frozen food. I also need to build a cover since my christmas wrasse decided to jump ship lately and dont want a repeat incident.

I'll check out amazing aquariums. Thanks for the heads up.

john37, i tried to google but couldn't find something similar. Basically it's a mystery wrasse with a blue tint. Supposedly come from somewhere that makes it a bit more rare.

you're in orange so you could just hop on by his shop and check it out. it's really nice.

I trust tong's fish about as much as I'd trust Britney Spears with my kids. Especially with a fish this expensive.

tuan, imagine a mystery wrasse with more of a blu-ey tint. It's really cool.
