SRC Member Tony Gill Posted February 7, 2014 SRC Member Share Posted February 7, 2014 The masudai died of a viral infection. Brought down to ML but the condition was so serious and the fish could not be saved. One of the most impressive fish i've kept, RIP. On a brighter note, here's some new nano fishes i acquired recently: 1) Lubbockichthys multisquamatus (Thanks lemon for letting me have the fish) 2) Serranus chionaraia (This guy is small, only 1", a very rare size) They are starting to stick together with my pseudoplesiops rosae. I call them the happy "three" friends: The fish you have identified as Pseudoplesiops rosae is actually a species of Lubbockichthys - and quite possibly the same as your L. "multisquamatus" individual. I am still in the process of sorting out species in this genus, but many are difficult to identify without x-rays to examine skeletal characters. Real Pseudoplesiops rosae is a very different fish ... grows to around 3cm with large scales. There are photos of it here: http://research.kahaku.go.jp/zoology/Fishes_of_Andaman_Sea/contents/pseudochromidae/03.html Thanks, Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a living picture of Rosae? For the last couple of years this group of dottybacks have been appearing on and off and are all rare. Not much is known so the mix up is not surprising. On another note, if you don't mind, could you shed more light on Pseudochromis luteus from Japan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digiman Posted February 20, 2014 Author Share Posted February 20, 2014 I love this Sunrise Wrasse. Where did you get it from? Does it need a lot of space? Agressive? I got it through Iwarna. It's the least aggressive hogfish i ever kept. It does require much swimming space. Preferably 3 ft and beyond. Not a fish for nano tank.

So if my fish is not a rosae, that means Dr Tanaka fishbase pic is not a rosae either? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
