That is also a very good point! The white patch is still there, but a little bit smaller. Hopefully he will be ok, and you're absolutely right: if it's infectious, it's already in the tank. The clown and chromis have adapted very well, and they leave each other alone. I had two more chromis...

A very good point indeed! Hopefully it's nothing, but I'm kicking myself for not having thought about using tank water to adjust my quarantine tank. Hindsight: always 20/20. Thanks again!

The pods in my sump don't know about him yet, but they will when they swim through the return! I am thinking about making a small fish trap to try and capture him that way...ideas? Maybe if I don't feed for a day, put some mysis into an inverted, new water jug only he can fit through and let him...

Interesting. I know he's eating well as most of my large pods vanish the next day. Curious to know HOW he eat those though....bc either the pods are molting due to growth, or the wrasse eats the insides and spits out the rest. Same with the bristol worms...I've seen what looks vaguely like...

I'll be keeping an eye on him for the time being. The white spot on his tail isn't raised, and appears on both sides. From what I can tell it's a common feature to have a white spot in that location, but I'll keep an eye on that as well. Does anyone knows any info specific to that? As far as...

Hi trigger40, I actually do have a quarantine tank, but it's salinity is way off the mark and there is nothing in there right now. It's been set up for months now, and filtering too! If I can catch the wrasse, should I just empty it out and refill with display water? Jay0705, it's just a bump...

Hello! New member here. I just recently acquired a small 6 line wrasse that has acclimated well to his new environment! He (or she) is eating well, swimming, darting, eating some more, hanging about, getting along with his tank mates (a clown and chromis...I read wrasses are one of the last fish...
