I'm going to be removing the remaining sand in my display today or tomorrow. I'll need to rehome my two leopard wrasse, preferably this weekend if I can catch them.

They get along great and eat everything: Flake, small pellets frozen foods from mysis/brine to LRS ect. 100% healthy although not QT'd. Both have been with me since last year.

The smaller female wrasse is your fiji/tonga type (I believe meleagris) and about 2-3".
I believe the Ornate is in it's male phase, possibly transitional phase, and around 3.5".

I'll sell them for $70 ea or $120 for both. No aggression between the two.

I'm open to trades for established fairy wrasse, anthias, tangs (more than one so they have a chance), larger butterfly fish or large fox face. Or a nice large group (10+) of blue/green chromis, if well established.

I'm located in Garden Grove, 92845. I still need to catch them but I think it shouldn't be TOO hard.

This picture is from 1/1/22. They are a little larger but you get the idea. The Ornate has more weight to him but about the same size. Ornate leopard.jpg

I also have a conch (at least one) and a few nassarius snails that will go along with these guys on pick up.

You think there would be any issues adding these to my system that has 2 leopards already? I have a Moyeri leopard and a leopard like yours but has transitioned to male. Both are pretty mellow and system size 187g peninsula.

Your tank is large enough to try but I would recommend an acclimation box for sure though. I had a moyeri with several other leopards and never an issue at all. The only combo I would want to observe first would be the two males, your current male and the ornate. See how they interact before committing to releasing the ornate. The smaller leopard will just stay sub to your current male I'm sure.

Great prices! Man, if I were closer I would take the conch and snails. Might have to take a road trip? GLWS! Awesome reefer!
