Mixing Wrasse In FOWLR…other stocking questions 3/ Hi guys, <> Got a quick question that I hope you can help me out with. <> I have a 72 gallon FOWLR. Currently in the tank include 2 ocellaris clowns, a yellow tang (3 inch), and 2 scarlet shrimp. A mystery wrasse 2.5 inch (Pseudocheilinus mysterii) was added last week. I wanted to add a few more wrasses but wanted to confirm compatibility. My LFS has a great looking Laboutei wrasse (Cirrhilabrus laboutei) and blue flasher wrasse, can those two be added together safely with my current stocking list? <> My plans to finish the tank will probably include a dwarf flame angel and possibly an Auriga butterfly. <> Thanks in advance for you advice,
Stocking Questions (Wrasse Compatibility) 3/ Hello again, It turns out that my LFS says that an ornate wrasse (H. ornatissimus) will fight with my Carpenter’s Flasher Wrasse. What should I do? -Victor <Well, Victor- I am not so sure if I agree with their assessment of the compatibility of these two fishes, but I do respect their attitude about not selling you fishes that they feel will not coexist together. Just because I (or anyone else) has kept different species together successfully is no indication of the success (or failure) that you may experience. ) or make a stocking compromise. Your LFS is your friend, and although you may have different views, you should badoo-promotiecodes respect their opinions, as they can be a very valuable ally in your hobby efforts. Your call here. Good luck! > Formosa Coris Wrasse with Thalassoma Lutescens Wrasse Compatibility 2/ Hello – great site as usual. Here’s my question. I have a 150XH tank – fish only. I have a nice sized (6 ?”) male lutescens wrasse (Thalassoma lutescens). I’ve also got a 5″ Dragon Wrasse. One of my local stores has a beautiful 6″ Formosa Wrasse that I’d like. What I’d like to do is trade in the dragon wrasse for the Formosa. I know the Formosa can get big and I’d find him a better him if and when he outgrows the tank, but wondering how the Formosa and the Lutescens would get along. The lutescens and the dragon get along just fine. Curious as to your thoughts? I’d get the Formosa (tomorrow) if it would work. <Well, they are both aggressive, and there is a chance the Banana Wrasse will harass the newcomer, but in a tank your size, this should be minimal providing there are plenty of retreats. I'd give it a shot. Do read here for more info. Thanks J
They told you I might have to give straight back the brand new Carpenters Wrasse to find the Embellished Wrasse otherwise get the next tank since the they will not sell it for me or even
Adding Another Wrasse To My Tank (Not Going to Be Easy) – I currently have a sixline wrasse along with 2 Tomato Clowns and a Yellow tailed Blue Damselfish in a 65-gal bare bottom tank with about 75 lbs of live rock. <> I’d like to know what wrasses would be a suitable tank mates for my current crew keeping in mind I will be adding some LPS and Flame Angel down the road. <>
