Need some input on expensive wrasses!!!
So story goes like this...
I was at the local fish store and saw a nice looking wrasse, thinking nothing of it I asked for the price. $49 was the reply from a empolyee. I got it bagged up and started heading home. Just before I arrived home I got a call from the lfs telling me that wrasse was a rare rhomboid wrasse they had sold to me by mistake. Long story short, I took the fish back to the lfs. I did decide to do more research on that particular fish since I just been going on a wrasse binge. I realize how much I like this fish, but the issue is the price has increased tremendously to a whopping $599 for the pair. I can't say that I like the price but it is a nice pair of fish. So, question is should I or shouldn't I.....

So after a few times visiting JL and checking out the Rhomboid I just couldn't pull the trigger. Even though they are amazing fishes, it was just too rich for my blood. I was there when the guy picked them up, I was almost ready to wait for him outside and mug him.
 Just kidding! On the other hand the tank is full of new sps frags thanks to the Victoria frag swap. It was so nice to meet other reefers whom share the same passion and love for this hobby of ours! Also like to thank Brad for putting all this together, your generosity won't be forgotten. Tank has been up and running close to 4 months now, I must say its looking better and better everyday. All the sps are growing rapidly I just wish I can take some better photos so I can show all you guys. I have been talking to a few canreefer about getting a setup but I just haven't made up my mind on how much I want to spend yet... Here are some pics of the new ultra clam I recently acquired.    also a few nice frags
