    im a bit worried about the wrasse, he doenst move around that much in the bag, he was active and made sure he ate at the lfs so im hoping he will liven up once he gets out of the bag, he doesnt even really move that much in the bag but once he moves around he seems ok ill upload pics in a minute they suck and still in the bag

    Open the bag and at least get him an air exchange. It will probably be Ok with all of the precautions you took at the LFS. Make it the first into the tank.

    Beautiful wrasse!!! I've heard that wrasse get really stressed out, so I wouldn't worry too much. He's just scared! He'll be fine.

    only problem with opening the bag is he would probably jump out with being a jumper but he seems ok now after i added the new water

    The little ones are sooo cute! Plus you get to watch him grow - that's the best part!
