Mine’s cheap as well as you and Aaron know Nothing too crazy

My current wrasses may be cheap… My future wrasse is going to be around $275 (£233). Albeit this wouldnt be my most expensive I’ve ever gotten, that title goes to the regal who few people seem to acknowledge.

Not the best pics, but some pics of the exquisite none the less. I believe, correct me if I'm wrong, but i do think this is an African variant.

Someone who agrees with me!
The male is nothing compared to the females

At least usually not in the animal kingdom

I meant my selection of wrasse would be cheap……LOL

Its nothing crazy just a $600 wrasse here and $900 wrasse there

If you want to blame my expensive tastes blame Aaron, the show Tanked, and @SaltyT

What can I say... I'm a wrasse enabler!

It should seem by the reaction @SaltyT is proud of what she has done to poor little me

Tanked lol. Where they triple overstock a tank the first day with non-quarantined fish.

Slocke · Mar 1, 2023

My wrasse lost right now is very cheap:
H timorensis: 30$
Dragon wrasse (no idea with the Latin sorry @i cant think ): 40$
C rubeus: 60$
A cearulepunctatus: 130$
A chrysocephalosaurus: ……. well it’s almost very cheap

Only thing tanked was good for, a laugh.

I'm sure it brought quite a few people into the hobby trying to replicate what they did. Only to find out it doesn't really work that way.

I dont understand how they would fit sooooooooooooo many fish in one tank lol. It’s like one episode where they fill a tank up with 14 Foxface and it’s only 600 gallons

Couldn’t remember the second half of the name haha

Whenever you guys/gals(didn't know salty was a girl) start throwing around scientific names, I have to go get my google on.

I’m sorry how long have you known her here and not known she was a girl? Lol

Hang out with Aaron more that’ll help you out with the scientific names. That’s what helped me. Don’t need to look em up all the time anymore. I mean of course there’s the dragon wrasse and the dinosaur wrasse @Slocke was writing I didn’t know about
