Beautiful black leopard! One of the prettiest I have seen, personally!

If it does well and eats, it will be MUCH easier to get other leopard wrasses to eat.

Alright i meant to post it last night i picked him up after work and brought him i was so nervous when i took him on the train for 45 minutes i was so nervous lol anyways i got home acclimated him and decided that i should move him from the bucket he was acclimating in to the little social box i mad for him with deep sand and some pvc for him to hide in so i picked him up with my HAND lol it really wasn't that hard very calm fish so i put him in the small tank and put him at the bottom of my dt where it is now after i put it in there he hung outside for a little while and then i looked away for a second and he was gone he dug himself he hadn't come out i was out today and my brother sent me a picture of him out swimming around so when i got home he wasn't out again so i shot some mysis in there and left it hopefully he will come out in the middle of the night and eat some
