WTB Pygmy Wrasse

[jamesvchin]

Looking for a Pygmy wrasse to help control a flatworm population in my 25g AIO.

Got some flatworm exit to treat it, but I'd also like some biological control and I heard these guys aren't nearly as aggressive as other wrasses.

(Keeping 2 clowns and a Jawfish in the tank)

I love wetmorella wrasses (all three) but I’ve never heard of them as being good for flatworms. I have a yellow banded, super cool, but my spotted mandarin is the one that cleared out my planaria in my 35g. He’s back in his larger tank now, but they are the only ones I’ve ever had luck with clearing out planaria.

This is my super chunky mandarin.

Man I'd love a mandarin! But im worried itd clash with my Jawfish, must be nice to have one that takes care of population control, I've heard mandarins are touch and go with that sort of stuff, but apparently so are wrasses.

Guess its just personality dependent

I’ve got an extra sixline wrasse and yellow banddd possum wrasse available if interested.

I would get the yellow banded possum all day long, avoid the 6 line at all costs. Yeah, she’s a fatty alright and I just moved her out of my 35g nano to my larger temp tank.
