Any acros ?

 

[MikeB]

Just a tyree sunset acro. How do I get rid of these?

 

[MikeB]

Looks like a six line or loepard wrasse in my future

 

[Reef Hero]

Will the salifert flatworm exit work on these guys too?

 

[reeffreak]

Leopards are a little harder to keep, not to discourage you from choosing one, just be known, they are beautiful fish, that's for sure.

I went with the hoevens wrasse but there's many to choose from, yellow corisse wrasse, sea grass, would all work. I would try and stay away from the sixlines, personally I found they become very aggressive from keeping two of them in tanks, not at the same time though.

 

[harleymike]

I have the yellow coris and melanurus wrasse. Great fish, get along so far with everyone.

You mean Milli? Never heard of a tyree sunset acro.....

 

[MikeB]

Sorry its a montipora. My Bad

 

[Reef Hero]

Lol no worries.... That's a nice monti! A classic but probably one of my favourites.

 

[MikeB]

I do like the hoevans wrasse. Now to see if anyone has that in stock

 

[MikeB]

It says deep sandbed for the hoevens wrasse. I only have 1.5 inch reef special grade. Will this work

 

[harleymike]

Most of them need a deep sand bed. Mine is only 2 too 2.5 inches deep. They seem fine. They go into the sand bed now worries..

Aquariums by design

Nice choice of wrasse, amazing to watch them cruise the rock work. He should put a dent in that flatworm pop.

 

[BIGSHOW]

Good choice for sure.  I have a yellow in almost all my tanks now.

I would even go as far as not to feed the tank for a few days.  This will force him to fine an alternative food source
