FS: 4" Hawaiian Ornate Christmas Wrasse


One of the coolest lookin fish I have ever seen. Red, blue, green, purple, black, white, orange, yellow mix with a great pattern. Much better looking than a Sixline. It also buries itself in the sand at night.
**Reefsafe except for with baby Peppermint shrimp and lettuce nudis.**

Sorry, no pics.

I doubt it. It a peaceful fish for the most part, but I wouldn't try it.

by any chance, is the the wrasse? If so, I'll take it. I'll be setting up a new tank soon, so if the yellow wrasse has to go live in my sump, so be it.

I think this is the fastest I've ever posted 3 or 4 posts. The pic I attached was of a Christmas Wrasse, but when you search for wrasses on the internet, everyone seems to have their own ideas of which fish is which. out of curiousity, why do you want to get rid of it? I think they're almost as interesting as my goby to watch, they sure have personalities.

I have the SAME wrasse you posted manderson0805

they eat meaty foods, swim in and out of rocks and keep to themselves very much, and they pick off my small starfishes off the glass/sand (astermia snails they called?) and thats about it.

Speaking of starfish Clyde, I did another cleanup of my tank the other day. When we moved, I quickly went over the rock and pulled as many as I could when I was aquascaping the tank. A couple weeks later, and I got another 50 or 60 out of the tank. I still see quite a bit in there now, but I'm going to try to pull 50 or so out every few months. I know they are a good cleanup crew, but when you go to look at the tank, and see literally hundreds, it isn't too pleasing to the eyes.
