Fish show-off thread - at least for me :)

I was finally able to get a couple of good shots of my mystery wrasse and wanted to show him/her off. I know fish are hard to photograph, but was wondering if anyone else had any pics of cool fish that they wanted to share?

Great fish! Thanks for sharing. Is he territorial?

I almost forgot my best friend the Rabbitfish.....bubble and hair algae don't stand a chance when he's in the house

Nice mystery! Mine went surfing the other day

My rabbitfish is lazy and doesn't take care of my algae.

So you get my new wrasse! Black fin flame wrasse.

Very cool wrasse Flake. One doesn't see those very often. Nice pic too. My rabbitfish is still young so he may also get fat and lazy and time progresses......

Rev....I know that these guys often do get territorial, but mine has been a sweetheart. I have kept him with tangs, rabbitfish, triggers, clowns, basslets, and anthias with no issues. He currently lives with a Solaris wrasse and Lubbock's wrasse and even they get along well. I'm hoping things stay that way

Does anyone know if mystery wrasses show sexual dimorphism? If so, how do you tell male from female? Normally its color....but these guys are so colorful I think it would be hard to tell. Maybe the males are the colorful ones and I've never seen a female?
