Dragon Wrasse  | You are absolutely right geek. You came in a little late. If you read all threads thoroughly you'll see that there was some confusion. |

| Omard, after looking your pics a lil closer, you have a Sleeper Banded Goby (Amblygobius phalaena). Not the dragon goby I have pictured. Very similar though.

The Dragon Goby is fairly reef safe while the wrasse is definitely not.

The Marine Center shows mine as a "Dragon Goby" (Amblygobius phalaena)
Other sites show a different fish...(Gobioides broussonnetii) as being a "Dragon Goby".
Well whatever its called, I am happy with it. Very handsome and well behaved/compatable addition to my tank. |

Trust me, they are!!!
Just waiting for me to put hand in tank.
Have noticed that over time the Maroon is not so serious about it anymore.
She used to quickly and repeatedly hit very hard nearly drawing blood. Now, they are half-hearted little nips with no force behind them.
Seems she has given up to the inevitable.
