Finally!!! My Wrasse collection is COMPLETE!!!

After a long search, my LFS finally found a Rhomboid for me. They came as a pair, I wanted the Male and Bblinks was looking to find a girlfriend for his Male. Needless to say that this worked out perfectly as our LFS had no intention of selling them seperately.

Without further adieu, here he is:

Thanks Eduardo! I'm not a patient guy, but I had to wait almost a month for this last wrasse.

I've wanted to get a pair of leopards but everytime I ask the LFS to feed them, they never eat so I get nervous and walk away. Went back a few days ago and they were still there so I said I'll take the chance on them and see how it goes. I put them in and they vanished until today! Once I saw them out and about, I threw my usual mix of food and at first they didn't seem interested and I started to worry but then the smaller of the 2 started to nibble at the larger pieces of mysis. Then it started to eat everything that floated by. The larger one still didn't seem to want to eat but finally a large piece of mysis went by and it took a bite! I couldn't believe it, the first day of feeding and they are eating frozen.

Here is a crappy, out of focus, pic of them.

I'm not fond of sixline's, they're a**es. I love my black leopard. He's now my new baby foxface's best friend.

yeah way to aggressive when they get big beautiful fish though, well it looks like my leopard survived the hazing because the 2 of them are actually able to stand each other in the same areas right now. i am removing the sixline when ever i can though.blacky is hunting and has eaten for me so im happy:)

now i want more wrasses :P

Just added another pair of Vanuatu net caught Red leopard wrasses from IPU today to my collection. One looks ready to change to male. These have been in the Burnaby shop for months now so adapted to captivity. They get along fine with my black leopard from IPU (last month).

I have not seen my leopard wrasse for 4 days now :( She did not jump, so not sure where she is, dead or hiding.

SeaHorse_Fanatic 08-07-2012 03:17 AM

Added 2 more red leopards since IPU was having a BC Day sale. Now my main tank has 4 red leopards & 1 black (the four reds are schooling together which is very cool to see).
