Reefer Ratings: (69) Friends: (4) | Pink Margin Wrasses $49
I just got a beautiful batch of pink margin wrasses. I'll post pictures later. Great size, 3 1/2" and fat! $49. I have a few, but they'll go fast.

Thanks. The pictures really don't do them justice. They look more like a lineatus than the picture shows.

Linkmaster, you have a picture of male vs female? I have 3 left. I'll try to figure out sex.

Reefer Ratings: (97) Friends: (17) | Fairy Wrasses Excerpt: The Red-Margined fairy wrasse, Cirrhilabrus rubrimarginatus, is a highly sought-after, yet rarely imported, specimen. The lack of importation is likely due to the depths at which this fish spends the majority of its time. They primarily reside below 100 feet deep, and have been found in depths nearing 200 feet. The depth at which this fish is collected makes it a bad choice for today's brightly lit SPS aquariums. They are known to aggregate over open rubble and sand bottoms with small isolated patch reefs. They are among the largest Cirrhilabrus, approaching six inches in length. Only Cirrhilabrus melanomarginatus is larger (Randall, 1992). Specimens that make it to the aquarium trade are most likely collected from Fiji, though this species is also found in Tonga and Southern Japan. Males are usually shades of blue, purple, or red with a broad stroke of yellow just in front of the red on their tail. Yellow spots fade to pink as they stretch from the head back to the tail. Below is a picture of a drab (when compared to the male) female. Last edited by Deanos; 07-09-2007 at 03:31 PM. |
