Hi
We got in a very rare wrasse this week. He came in Thursday morning and was eating within 2 hours after his acclimation. The wrasse is called Rose Band Fairy Wrasse and is truly a beauty. I have attached some pictures of him and the last picture is a stock photo of an adult male. The male we have is not yet reached his terminal stage coloring but is about 3" long. This wrasse is one of the larger fairy wrasse's and would make a spectacular specimen in a reef system

If you are a collector of wrasse's this guy is a must have

Thanks for looking
AV

I saw this fish in person and it is a real beauty. I recently picked up a diamond tail flasher wrasse (paracheilinus-attenuatus) and an exquisite wrasse from AV and they are both doing well. They have a great variety of difficult to find wrasses.

I picked up a Naoko last night and he was eating after 5 minutes I put him in my display. Also the rose band was very mean towards the yellow candy hogfish.....but definitely a beauty.
