Hey all, yesterday I picked up a Super exquisite mail fairy wrasse and a male sailfin fairy wrasse. I also got a orange spot rabbitfish. Currently they are in my bare bottom QT tank, the wrasse's are hiding under some PVC and the rabbitfish is swimming around enjoying the tank. I haven't started treating with cupramine yet as I wanted to reach out to the community first. Are these wrasse's that will be ok w/ curpramine? I've also seen some people put a "sandbox" if you will, in their QT so the wrasse's feel more comfortable. At any rate, looking for your advice and thanks in advance!!! I can't wait to get these fish into my display, they are all so beautiful!!!!
I got 2 new Wrasse's...do I QT as normal!?!

Not sure about fairy wrasses and copper.
Fairy wrasses don't use/need sand. Only Halichoeres, leopards, and Coris.
Watch that sailfin for aggression. They are supposedly highly aggressive...like slightly below Scott's.

Fairy wrasses don't bury so no sand is needed.
I have had success using cupramine on fairy wrasses. Just bring up the copper levels very slowly, over 10 days or longer.
What size tank? Sailfin fairies can be bossy with other fairy wrasses.
