    Last night I was able to get a few picture of what I hope will not be the start of a war between two of my flame wrasses. A submale, that might be turning "supermale" decided to test the waters a bit.

    Here is a pic of my "supermale" for reference.

    .... and this a my submale testing the waters. Now this could be because of the addition of the blueline, as I have never seen him flash like this. It last more than 2 hrs!

    I hope to have five flames, they have been together for over 5 months so I seee no reason anything would change . As for other wrasses Pink Margin Fairy Wrasse, Rhomboid, Lineatus, may be a few others.

    The blueline is doing great. I added him in last week Friday. As for pairing it, yes I will it's just a hard fish to find small nice healthy ones.

    Man I love the looks of that Blue Line! You do know we have a photo contest going right now, topic FISH!!

    How the Fox Face doing at eating the bubble algae?

    I recently added a Cirrhilabrus aurantidorsalis, or an Orange Back. Not as pricey as the fish list above, but very striking with amazing color and detail. I think Im still going to add a Flame and/or a Labouti as well.

    Nice addition Rob!

    As for the photo contest I might look in to it, but my photos are not very good. Still work on then .
