Hi hi,

Can I check Pinnacle is formerly Pacific Marine? I looked at the google map it seemed so..

Did U check-out the elusive BLACK LEOPARD aka Macropharyngodon negrosensis at the far end of the fishy tanks ?

The Black Leopard Wrasse or Yellowspotted Wrasse is occasionally seen in the aquarium trade but it is not a fish for the inexperienced. They are wonderful, peaceful community fish that can even be housed with others of the same genus. This is also one of the few wrasses that can be kept with its own species. In both cases however, they are harmonious as long the mix is all females with just one male.

Due to their specialized eating habits and nature, these wrasses should only be attempted by advanced aquarists as they are very difficult to keep. They are not forgiving and can end up deceased in a short period of time after being added to your tank.

Both the male and the female have a black body color. On the male, the spots are more like “diamond†shapes, in the sense that each scale is outlined in a blue-green coloring. The females are similarly colored, though the spots are closer together as they get closer to the dorsal fin, with colors ranging between yellow to white. The juveniles are the ones with the yellow spots, thus the name Yellowspotted Wrasse. As this fish ages the spots may take on a blue-greenish color with yellow near the the top of the head.

Leopard Wrasses have been known to live from 5 to 8 years in captivity.

Black Leopard Wrasse adults reach up to a maximum length of about 4.7 inches (12 cm).

The Black Leopard Wrasse or Yellowspotted Wrasse is best in pairs or groups, though the tank must be larger to sustain more than one. It is one of the few wrasses that may be kept with their own genus (Macropharyngodon), and then only if one fish is male and the rest are female.

They are reef safe, though the do eat tiny micro-crustaceans, they will not bother the corals. Compatible with all peaceful fish and some semi-aggressive fish like dottybacks, dwarf angels, jawfish, rabbitfish and the like. If semi-aggressive fish are in the plans, add the leopard wrasse first. Do not put with Puffers, scorpionfish, groupers or other fish large enough to eat them. Also avoid slow, methodical feeders such as seahorses or pipefish.

hehe now left 2 , and hidden in 1 of the tank at the black were 2 ornate leopard wrasse, now left 1

No la the venustus is only 1.5inches, a small size and a good size but by now should be gone. The other 3 Multibars are slightly bigger, 2inches and bigger.

Think Koran angel got a big one at Reborn. Reborn nothing much, quite boring stock.
