SRC Member vt_snowman87 Posted November 26, 2008 SRC Member Share Posted November 26, 2008 i used to have a yellow wrasse, does take care of bristleworms and other stuffs, but once it settled in, will bully smaller fishes, and snatch all the pellets and food since its very fast.. i had a problem catching it out.. even with all the rocks out.. because it hides/sleeps deep in the sand.. but nonetheless a good patrol fish in my opinion.. just take note of its size.. my 2 cents from my limited experience, hope that helps..

Senior Reefer yikai Posted January 15, 2009 Senior Reefer Share Posted January 15, 2009 small crabs!! hmm haha guess its time for me to find 1 yellow wrasse le haha my yellow wrasse since day one until now, never eat any pests in my tank. Still have like 20+ crabs, bristleworms etc etc. I think its individual yellow wrasses. Mine just doesn't eat those crabs. I even borrowed a niger trigger to solve the crab problem. NO USE. nothing will eat my crabs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
