Lol I’m kidding. It is like a reverted Choati. Instead of the almost all orange with white and silver markings it’s the almost all white and silver with orange markings I can see so I guess it be a fun trade off.

Yeah. I'd probably get a leopard if I had somewhere to put it but I don't think the risk would work out with current stocking and tank size. Also I think the timor is just really cute!

Not sure my other Halichoeres would agree with that…
Then again, I wasn’t sure how my bipartitus would react to a choati although I had the option to transfer her to the 4’ tank (Knowing my other fish wouldn’t be aggressive - I transferred my naoko into the display when he was at his worst).

It wasn't a serious suggestion just my weird way of announcing my new fish!

I bet adding the choati will cause your bipartitus to begin the transition.

It likely will, I know one would start a transition but the question of which is high. I assume the most aggressive would transition so that would likely be the bipartitus.

He is beautiful, I do love the blue background against the orange lines on the timorensis. If I had to redo my wrasse gangs I’m sure one would end up placing somewhere in them.

Bipartitus seem to transition more frequently than other leopards. But if I had one it would take YEARS to transition in my tank

at the rate my Kuiteri is transitioning she/he will be finished in about 2-3 years!

Maybe I could find out if my wrasses transition at your wrasses’ rate or at @Crabby48 wrasses’ rate.
I’d love to see a mature 1.75-2 inch male bipartitus haha

I'd be more than happy with that. I don't want mine to change

You and @SaltyT coddle them to much to let them grow up lol.

It's a mixed bag for me. I would love for my black leopard to transition, but just when she started to my kuiter's started too. Now my black leopard is frozen and my kuiter's is taking her sweet time

Well, I went to the further away LFS today to get some All For Reef and definitely didn’t leave empty handed. I have 3 things for both tanks, I only really got 2 different species but 3 lots of each.
They’re all inverts however one species is a coral (for this tank) the other species is a Shrimp (for the 4’ tank).
