Definitely risky, royal gramma tend to be more aggressive especially with other basslets.
Tempted to see if I can get a refund on my order and then buy that one, thanks for letting me know!
It’ll be a month before I decide to rehome him but I’ll keep you in mind!
Aw I’m sorry to hear that! That’s the reason I bought quarantined fish already. Your tank is beautiful! Currently torn between that lagoon or going up to the 40 gallon. I’ll keep you in mind!I am in Woodstock. Just got wiped out by ich. I have a 25 gallon lagoon. I am interested for sure. Tank is looking great , but fishless, I need to stay fallow for awhile. Edited to add that I do have a 15 gallon set up that I could temporarily home the fish while I finished "fallow".

Yeah I read that and decided against buying from WWC lol. And my first Liopropoma Rubre came from KP and lived 4 years before I had to rehome him due to moving! Sadly they don’t have the Liopropoma Swalesi I want. Great quality fish from there though for sure.Be sure to QT it. Saw a complaint this week about WWC fish coming in with uronema.

Swissguard Basslet - Peppermint Basslet
Peppermint Bass, also called Swissguard Bass, Lipropoma rubre, is a somewhat rare bass found throughout the Caribbean and occasionally in the Florida Keys. They are usually found in deeper water, and usually hidden in the deep, dark recesses of the reef. They are probably more common that we...
I got my old L.rubre from them (my profile pic) for like $80 back then when I couldn’t find them anywhere else and he was as healthy as a horse and never QT’d him haha..loved that fish! Got some awesome gorgonians from them too.oh my bad, my brain is fried.. I got them mixed up.
Ya I love KPA fish.
I used to be able to buy some other reef fish from divers in other areas on ebay like green banded gobies but those days are over
Are you still fishless? I think your fallow period should have ended a few days ago! Sadly my new swalesi basslet hates my Swissguard and REALLY beat him up good. If you still are looking for a beautiful fish, let me know. He’s in my spare tank recovering for now.I am in Woodstock. Just got wiped out by ich. I have a 25 gallon lagoon. I am interested for sure. Tank is looking great , but fishless, I need to stay fallow for awhile. Edited to add that I do have a 15 gallon set up that I could temporarily home the fish while I finished "fallow".
Wowzers, got your PM, yes, I am in!
