So i narrowed down my wrasse list..Been reading up on all of them and i cant seem to decide which one i want still.. Just wanna knw if u guys had any experience with any that i have listed.. and which one would u choose to have in ur reef tank.. My tank is a 30g cube tank just fyi

Leopard Wrasse
Red Tail Flasher Wrasse
Filamented Flasher Wrasse
 
Six lines are nice. I've had two cleaner wrasses and both died on me not sure why though. So far my leopard wrasse is doing great I'm not sure if you would produce enough pods in your 30 g. To keep it happy. You could always feed pods though if you have a way of growing them or buy them. It took my leopard two weeks before it started accepting frozen mysis. I have no experience with the flasher wrasses but I really love my leopard.
 
I like my six line but its kinda aggressive toward any smaller fish in the tank. I had a cleaner wrasse once but it disappeared after about a week
 
I love my sixline. I have tried several cleaner wrasses, but they all died on me.

Cleaner wrasses have a reputation of dying. I would only buy one from a fellow reefer selling them who's had them for awhile. they don't handle shipping well I think, or they are not collected properly.
 
I actually wanted one but decided against it since they get rather large and i have a fish thats yellow already in the midas blenny i'll be getting later

Sixlines are great fish just worried about their aggressiveness since he's gonna be housed with some banggai's and chromis
 
dam dude nice. trying to find a cube myself, like how you got your rocks spotlighted. are they stacked or secured? what are the dimensions on this guy?

link to thread?
 
Jeff,
Six Line wrasse is a aggressive little fish they will beat the Mandarin if you have one. I like Yellow Coris and melanurus wrasse. Just my opinion.

+1 didn't see u were doing mandarin. Be careful bc wrasse will devour pods and that could affect ur mandarin if it's not eating mysis or pellets.. Mandarins are very slow when hunting unlike wrasse
 
Melanarus Wrasses on special at Living Sea. Not that I like that place, but $35 is a good price for a nice reef wrasse.
