This my new wrasse added to my now growing wrasse colony.

Settling in color is coming out

Very nice. Never come across one of these in person but always thought they looked pretty unique.

I see them available every now and then.

I had one. Great fish. Big wrasse hole when it got bigger

Well if he gets nasty I will inject him into the future FOWLR/Preditor tank I am going to set up. It is the smallest fish in the tank at this time so no troubles yet and maybe hanging around with my mellow female leopard wrasse he will be good she is at least double its size.

It is not so much nasty you have to worry about, it is his size. He will grow to over 10 inches and fast. I hope your FOWLR that you are planning to set up is a very large tank
Please ensure that the top of your tank is totally covered.

You will not be able to keep snails, hermit crabs, urchins and other small inverts.
