Where to buy wrasses online?

Go see Don at Salt water Paradise in Irving. Great fish store. Join the DFWMAS. They will help as well with local recommendations.

Pulled the trigger on a wrasse from among the reef, hopefully it wil be in stock. Thanks everyone for suggestions so far, I had forgotten about some of those options. I'll keep an eye out. Could use other wrasse...

Good look on your hunt for wrasses. I currently have Melanurus, Splendid Pin Tail, Flame, Pink Margin and Line Spot.

I didn't have much luck with them.
A few months ago I ordered a pink margin wrasse. Never heard a word or got shipping confirmation. Wrasse showed up a few days later. Fortunately I was home. Wrasse lasted less than 24 hours. They gave me credit and I ordered a brunneus wrasse and two tail spot blennies. Never heard anything from them again. Again, they arrived a few days later. Again, I happened to be home. So, instead of two tail spot blennies I received one bicolor blenny. I emailed and a couple days later they issued me a refund for the blennies. The brunneus wrasse lasted 15 days, 1 day after their warranty. It had prazi resistant flukes. Humblefish helped me through doing hypo, which the crescent wrasse also in the tank that I'd ordered from Ny Aquatic did just fine in.

I'd heard many good things about them so I gave it a go. Hopefully, for the fish's sake, they just had a bad few weeks.

I understand it's the holidays but no communication at all is no good

Agree with Frank's. Awesome guy, nice shop, I have bought livestock from him and plan to buy the rest of my fish there.
