Great video. I’m researching wrasses right now. You crack me up ripping on yourself in this video. We have similar personalities. Self-deprivation is a good quality to have. Keep up the good work

Really beautiful set up. I have a blue line cleaner wrasse in my 200g and have always thought about adding different kinds of wrasse but have been unsure. This content is really informative thanks.

Just found and subscribed to your channel and have to say I’m really enjoying your content and your tank is stunning. What would your advice be on adding a leopard wrasse from quarantine to my main display that already has a Noako wrasse in? The Noako is the only wrasse in there but he’s incredibly active. I do worry because the leopard wrasse seems so delicate. I’m hoping to add the leopard wrasse and a orchid dottyback at the same time to disperse any potential aggression. I could also use a mirror and acclimation box but with the leopard wrasse being a burrowing fish how to I get around this in a box? Also our long should I keep them in the box? Thanks 🙏

I have a total of 7 wrasse in the whole house, theres 5 in the 4x2x2 and 2 in my nano, 3 of the 5 in the 4x2 are fairy wrasse, the other two are Halichoeres wrasses, I’d say the easiest way to mix fish of the same species is if they’re different computations and not the exact same colours, you have a male with multiple females or they’re all female

So, I added couple days ago a 6 line wrasse. I have heard mixed reviews on him. My royal gramma hates him (6 line is about 1/2 inch to an inch long). Royal constantly looking for him. I added a few weeks ago a exquisite wrasse, my Sailfin pinned him and it was a constant chase… my lawnmower blenny also chased the wrasse… 2 days after I added the exquisite, I found my blenny and the exquisite dead…. The Sailfin doesn’t go after anyone else, I did see him occasionally chase the blenny too… is there something I can do to keep the Sailfin in check? He’s fast and impossible to catch. Would another tang be a bad idea?

I would add a couple of mirrors on the ends of tank. Then use an acclimation box with the new tang. Add more than one at a time to spread aggression. Try to get bigger tangs than the one you have as well.

That's definitely part of it. But doing that with the wrong fish still won't work. For example, if you tried that with a Scott's Fairy and Lineatus Fairy, it wouldn't work.

Um... I just added a small 6-line to an established tank full of fairy & leopard wrasses. I waited to add the 6-line last & it seems to work. Yeah, pound for pound they are prob the meanest fish. Totally agree w u on acclimation box. I added most of my fish using an accl box including leopard wrasses w/ 100% success. I stopped losing newly added fish ever since I began using the box. I also had similar experiences w the bluestar leopard. I had a number of bluestars over the yrs & they tend to be very aggressive even toward their own kind. I had female bluestar kill other fem bluestar & had male bluestar kill fem bluestar. For some reason, these guys tend to be quite aggressive.

@@rrrreefer9721 i have 2 small meleagris wrasses in acclimation box right now and 1 of my bluestar immediately went after them and kept pestering them the entire day. The next day the bluestar was no longer interested in the meleagris in the box. Will release after a week or so and see what happens. This method has worked so far for me in adding new wrasses. BTW, how do u plan to catch the bluestar? Leopards are tough to catch cos they dive into the sand.
