No pictures yet but mine looks almost exactly like the pictures in Kuiter's book-the ones in photograph A which are juveniles. I'm a lousy judge but I'm guessing mine is about 2 1/2 inches. Thanks for the link Len-you're pictures are beautiful. Mine has different eyes-large and red. Myles

After a couple of weeks of drooling at the lfs, I finally broke down and purchased my C. rhomboidalis and she's doing great. Not one minute of hiding-she went directly from the net to exploring her new surroundings and ate aggressively about 1-2 hours after being placed in the tank. What a...

They had two-but only one is left. Will he do ok in a 40g or does he need more swimming room to be content. Thanks, Len Myles

I saw my first C. rhomboidalis at a fish store-Wow what a gorgeous animal. Has anyone out there ever kept one? I've kept a number of fairy wrasses in the past and wonder how this one compares as far as hardiness, disposition and so forth. I 've already found out that they come from relatively...

Matt, Thanks for your reply. Gorgeous picture! Mine is the same species. When I purchased him it was with the intent of placing him in the 20g but then I read in Scott Michael's book that they can be aggressive to other bottom dwellers like gobies and blennies. Like you I am concerned about...

Does anyone have any experience keeping one? Mine is ready to come out of quarantine and I'm trying to decide which aqaurium to add him to. Choice 1) 20g with fire fish N magnifica, watchman goby A. guttata, and alpheus pistol shrimp. Would he be too aggressive in here? Choice 2) 40g with a...
