Trully crappy pics NOT. Awesome fish Jon.

Are you sure that is a C. randalli? Looks nothing like the photos in the Kuiter wrasse book pg. 26. Nice fish though. Where did you get it? Looks much more like a juvenile male C. temmnickii type ( pg 22).

Jon I just did a search, and that same photo is listed as C. pylei, i think the site you used copied the wrong name ( C. randalli is the next shown ) C. pylei would be much more likely a find, but it doesn't look like my pylei either so who knows???

i think steven said it's cebu pylei.

can a mod please change the title to: my cebu pylei wrasse

phil that was the wrasse i was telling you about.

aaron you can have it for $125. :lol:

 

[heuerfan]

Awesome shots Jon, great find! Northern Aquarium, didn't know you go there

I just saw 3 of these at House of Fins in CT selling for $120.00 each. They don't know what they are or else i'm sure the price would have been higher

Best of luck with it, its one of the nices Cebu's i've seen.

 

[scarf_ace1981]

thanks mod

yeah steven i go to the two stores in flushing all the time.

they hardly ever have anything when i make it up there but i guess it payed off this time

 

[aaron23]

ill give you $120 if you let me poop in y0 tank :duh:
