thanks for the compliment on the tank

They are still a fine looking fish (big though) when they reach adulthood

Please tell us you have a cover on that pretty tank?

 

[qqfob]

I guess they sold me a non invert safe wrasse for my reef tank

 

[qqfob]

i learned my lesson on my first wrasse, second day. now i have 8 in total, buy almost everything in there can jump. yes, i have covers

Definitely not a Red Sea Cleaner. The cleaners are all black/dark blue with the two blue stripes originating from the nose and following the body contour to the caudal peduncle and into the caudal fin.

The pictured fish has different stripes and a red tint with a light colored vertical stripe. +1 Chiseltooth, very cool.

Do you have a crinoid in there?

 

[qqfob]

crinoid as in fan worm? i have a dieing duster cluster. I think what you are seeing is the spanish dancer, or the red rock anemone

 

[lfsmarineguy]

Also sometimes called a feather star?

 

[qqfob]

oh yeah, that... yeah theres a lot of things that i shouldn't have brought. it does react to a spot feeding of oyster feast but we'll see how long it'll last.
