QT for Leopard Wrasses

[Reefomeez]

I thought this was a really good article on successfully getting leopards to acclimate, holistically, to the new environment.

I've tried the same but in my DT in a breeder net and have had mixed success. Any other methods out there that are trump tight?

I've dirty pirated 2 leopard wrasse....recently a black leopard from tongs that was all beat up. Both are still alive.

That's an interesting read though. If I ever get a bigger tank a choati would be nice

Pretty interesting. But not too many people have a QT plumbed into their DT and two UV sterilizers to spare. Interesting nonetheless.

Trudat! But if you're buying as many choati as the author mentions you've probably got it like that.

How are your leopard(s) doing?

The Aquarium had a blue star leopard eating pellets last time I was there. I got a female and male leopard wrasse from them and now they are train to eat pellets. flakes or anything i throw in the tank.

I put my hands in the tank to pry out an anemone and it dove in the sand never to be seen again. But I'm ready to try again with the new tank ready. I almost bought a dusky wrasse today...not a leopard but very similar looking.

Either way that's a hell of a deal

I'm not a big fan of the fairies so I'm not sure exactly what kind but I recognize them as the more expensive kind.

Yeah great deal. I got 3 meleagris for $40. I was pleased.
