I like to think i did everything i could for him. He never really looked sick, i removed an aggressive fish, everything was peaceful but he never could get comfortable for some reason. Very skiddish fish. A complete opposite from his female counterpart who was out and about from day one.

Ok guys, I had this hood built so I could have wrasse without worrying about them jumping. But apparently I have another issue in keeping these gorgeous fish.
The problem is that I have this one wrasse (blue side wrasse) that has become extremely anti-social towards all the other wrasse I have tried to introduce. The only other wrasse that has managed to survive it's attack is another blue sided wrasse.
My question to you experts is this. What other wrasse can I put in my mini reef that can stand it's ground? Please. I don't believe I can catch him.

I'm not sure JasonE and I couldnt positively identify him at the store. Hopefully, I'll be able to narrow it down when he emerges from his hidey hole and starts flashing.

It's hard to tell from my picture, but it has the beginnings of a lyretail which Carpenter's don't have; theirs are rounded. JasonE is beginning to think it's a hybrid of P. filamentosus & P. flavianalis.
