blue head fairy wrasse

[jmadrid]

I seen one at my local fish store and wanted to know if it was reef safe and if My hermit crabs, peppermint shrimp and turbo snails are safe?

Yes, very beautiful, friendly reef safe fish. Good find.

Can I ask where and how much?

 

[jmadrid]

This is store just started doing saltwater fish and they had it for 16.99

Only reason I didn't buy it was I wanted to do a little research about the fish before purchasing it And hear some opinions.

Sorry I forgot to say where it was it was a dump but now I think new ownership took it over small salt water section. The woman I talked to was very helpful very nice and told me if I needed anything she would order it for me this is the name tropical fish house and pets (montclair)

They are very green only one girl who works there is a little knowledgeable. She is there on weds for sure that is also when they get there shipments. Also the salt section is very small they might even still be cycling. Also I only seen one of the wrasse.
