New Additions to my Aggressive Tank
Here are the new additions that I picked up from Matt at OTP after our camping outting at Wild Cat. I guess I finnally made up my mind that I am going to have one tank aggressive.
Hairy Dwarf Lion Fish (Harry)
Puffer (Egor) lol
Wrasse (spot) Matt from OTP said that this is a Coral Wrasse? Can't find it on any other web sites is there another name for it that I can look up?
This is a shot of my Sun Coral that Cary gave me it is finnally opening up.

Most books have Wrasses and Hogfish as the same thing. Coral was the closest I found in Marine Fishes book by Micheals. I have Chicago getting a list of all the wrasses/hogfish I purchased. I do know its not common at all and one that doesnt get 19-20 inches.

K that means I count my fingers and I have a rare wrasse. lol That's ok I like it anyways, even if we don't know what it is called.  Matt I haven't seen the wrasse or the new lionfish eat yet any suggestions.
