Carpenter Wrasse

[SSalty]

Does anyone have experience with a Carpenter Wrasse? My LFS just got one in, and it looks like a cool fish.

Aaahhh. The ol' carpet surfing trick.

Was it aggresive? What would it eat?

I dont have any experience with these but they look really good. It says they are not agressive at all and it eats variety of meaty treats including frozen mysis, saltwater feeder shrimp, squid, scallop clam and other crustaceans.

I haven't had one either but I sure want a mated pair of that or a McCoskers.
Check out the Divers Den at Liveaquaria.com.There are some gorgeous Filamented and Carpenters.If you get one look for a super male,they have the best colors.Don't forget a top of some kind.....they are jumpers.

those are beautiful fish. my lfs had one a while back. it's colors were kinda drab compared to most that I have saw. so, I had to pass since it was 40 bucks.
