Nice collection Joe!...I was an Anthias addict for many years, but in recent years I'm into wrasses too...I'm surprised that the Mystery is behaving itself in that group and the Magma with the Flame. Even in my tank I didn't want to take a chance with a Magma with my Flame.

Thanks Mike. The Mystery was very tiny when i got him and has been fine until recently. Now that he is a little bigger he goes after the smaller fish when first introduced but eventually leaves them alone. The Magma and flame shockingly don't even pay any attention to each other. Right now the only real aggression i'm seeing is the radiant is starting to chase some of the fairy's around. He is also getting a little too big and may need to be re-homed soon.

Thank you both. I never liked them when i first got into the hobby but love them now. I love the look of smaller active fish constantly swimming around the reef.

nice. how did you quarantine them. I seem to kill them with copper so was thinking of tank transfer and just observe

Very nice Joe.......that center rock which appears to be sponge encrusted (yellow) is that indeed sponge or some type of mushroom?

I do not quarantine wrasse for that very reason. I do use a acclimation box when introducing. Making sure they are swimming and eating before getting released into the tank.

[Reef lover24]

love the tank and the fish are gorgeous.. This maybe a stupid question but do you have a cleanup crew? Do they last? lol some wrasses are known for pecking at snails and hermits/shrimp

 

[smoq]

No you don't. 9 and counting here
