Interesting Pearlfish (Carapus Bermudensis)

An interesting fish that lives in the body of a sea cucumber during the day and swims out at night to feed!

Seens a few photos but this is the first time I see it in action... Very interesting...

4 "lunatus" fairy wrasse from RVS fish world.

the philippine lunatus wrasse is differentiated from the japanese ones by the lack of yellow coloration on the body. generally, they are orange with black fins.

look closely at the picture. the wrasse in the middle of the group shot is not a lunatus, but a pintail fairy wrasse. a young female-male transitioning specimen. unlike the lunatus wrasse, the pintail has a purple line that curves and hooks around the base of the pectoral fin.

of course the clear ID key would be the lanceolatus tail which is not seen in this picture.

of the 4, 2 lunatus and the pintail arrived in singapore today on a trial shipment. We talked to Barnett and arranged to specifically order them. in future, we should see more and they will be available for sale. the lunatus wrasse is not rare and RVS offers them a few times per month, but in limited quantities. They always go to the states but this time we requested for them to be sent here. likewise in the future.
