Does anyone have pics of Banner Wrasse? All the pics I have looked up on the net look nothing like the one I purchased. The guy at the LFS said it was a banner. I tried to get a pic but they didn't come out very good at all. I will keep trying after dinner.

Not a very good pick at all. I have another pic that I took when I was acclimating but it is to large to post here (stupid me!!!! I had the setting on the camera to high) It has a ton of different colors and vertical lines. It is about 21/2 inches

This pic is a mystery wrasse. This is the closest thing I can think of to what yours is. BUT these fish go for 199 and up. The facial colors of my pic compared to your second pic look alot alike. This is JMO I may be wronge. But if this is what you have and you didnt pay 199 then you got a darn good deal.

Does look kinda similar. The store wanted 40.00 for it but I talked him down to 20.00 because it was getting beat up. I think that is why it is so shy right now. The guy said it was reef safe but everything I have been reading that look similar to this one says that they are not reef safe. OH WELL........ WAIT AND SEE.
Thanks for your reply's

If this one is a mystery wrasse it is reef safe and very peaceful.

I hope it is reef safe. Before I bought it, I asked if they can feed it and they put in some brine which it did eat. I have seen it eat Brine, Daphnia, and some formula one flake. It also continues to pick at the LR just like my flame angel. No worries so far. Thanks a bunch.
