wow! hard to believe its been almost a year since i have posted any updated pics !
lots of fish have come and gone since then , but many still make their home in this tank and many new additions since last year .
this fish i just recently got a couple of weeks ago , but have waited the better part of two years to find one . the pics don't do any justice for this fish but it a 5" creole wrasse (clepticus parrae) just about to intermediate colors .

Still a great tank and needs some more publicity on the forums  The fish look like they are doing great.
