An uncommon wrasse in the trade. Here is a paragraph feature on this group of fish (Hologymnosus) from Reefkeeping online magazine: "It arrives as a small, little wrasse often very curious and aware of its tankmates and surroundings. "Surely it will do well," the hobbyist thinks, "it is cute and appears alert." What these fish eventually become, however, is anything but small and curious. Information about these "little guys" isn't easy to find. Of course, gathering information about them, as well as simply identifying them, is hindered by the presence of three different color varieties in each species. As a result, many local fish stores may not be able to offer accurate information regarding these wrasses' home aquarium care. As is often the case, the lack of quality information will result in an impulse purchase - one that would likely have been avoided if quality information had been readily available. And so, it is with a bit of hope that these fish will ultimately find their way into large aquariums featuring other large, carnivorous fish, that I'd like to present this article on the marine fish from the genus Hologymnosus, also called the "Ringed Wrasses."" Reason of sale: Not reef safe, but the fish is only 1.5 inch currently still very small, the fish likes to hide in sand. Selling at $35 (bought at $45) Collection: Woodlands prefably today evening or tomorrow (sat) morning, if not i'll put back the fish as dun wan the fish to be w/o sand for too long. Requirements: U need to hav a sand bed, the fish will can grow big, though v slowly, and may attack very tiny shrimps but very safe with corals. Interested pls SMS only at 96951347. Tks Tay.

This is juvenile Hologymnosus rhodonotus. pic shown is what i previously updloaded for id. Beside it is a rainford's goby (or court jester goby). I got this fish (with no knowledge of it at all) because it resembles the peppermint hogfish, but sad to realise that it is nothing like the latter, and somemore the fish is not cheap (more than 4 red notes)! In conclusion, always research on a fish before u buy..

Soon to come will have to consider selling the fish to pple who keep fish only tank. Sob

I'll detail on the equipments on next posts, but now let me list down the fishes in the main tank so i can keep count of the number of fishes i adding: 1) Lineatus wrasse female 2) Flame wrasse 3) Royal pencil wrasse (Pseudojuloides severnsi) 4) Royal Gramma 5) Hologymnosus rhodonotus (pic shown) 6) Rainford's goby (a difficult fish, only eat hair algae at back of tank, but lucky still survive till now, 2 months current) 7) Green Mandarin goby (another difficult fish for me, hardly feeding, sunken stomach and jump out of tank twice, but surprised me to be still alive for 2 months) 8) Yellow head jawfish

Haha tat's true, i found the plain tank which is chucked at the back of the shop and after a bargain got it cheap from the LFS, and ya the wrasses each cost more than twice the tank's price. But it's worth it, i rather pool in the money to get a few fishes i reali like then to spend wantonly on many fishes which cost much less that i may grow sick of after a while.

Currently a poor student who cant afford high end sophisticated equipment to start a nice tank but yet at the same time cant resist the temptation of possessing a reef tank of my own, so here is the birth of my tank which i focus to keep everything simple, i.e. a skimmer, T5 lights, a DIY sump box, plus a 3 feet tank. Well that also mean i cant maintain a jam-packed SPS tank (which i yearn to hav after looking at all the successful reefers tank here) or a high bioloaded tank (which i reli wish to see schools of swimming fishes), hence a combination of half soft half LPS tank with no more than 8 fishes currently (though i sort of am confident to add more in time to come). The details will fill in slowly if i can find the time to balance between my school work and hobby and part time work (in order to sustain the hobby). Hopefully when i'm more financial qualified, i'll work towards the gorgeous tanks that so many reefers here hav.

Thanks for the id but v sad to read about the fish info, it will get too large and not suitable for reef. It's small now, but eventually hav to think of way to remove it when it gets larger.. Sigh Oh btw i got it from Ah beng, and of course they dun know much abt the fish when i ask about the fish.

Can anyone help to identify this fish? It's a wrasse right? it measures about 1 inch now. Tks.

Recently trying to catch a wrasse out of my tank due to aggression, dun wanna buy a trap and tried the "late night" catching method and it works wonder. I woke up at 3am and on all the tank lights, den use a chopstick and started peircing the crevices where the fish is sleeping and out of shock fish dart out and onto the sandbed, blurred by the lights where i hav a chance to slowly net the fish out. However after that i think i may jux be lucky cos what if the fish dive deeper into the rocks den i've no chance to catch it liao.

Fish reserved pending collection. Tks for interest.
