    i almost picked up a dragon wrasse just like that one last week, but i decided to research it a little first. when i went back to buy it 2 days later of course it was sold. thats funny your brittle star is hiding under that oyster. i have 1 shell like that sticking off a piece of liverock and that's the spot my orange brittle claimed to be his.

    Dragon wrasse look awesome when they're juvenile, mine appears to be turning into an adult so it doesn't look as good now.

    At the store I go to they are very common, and the brittle star was in the barnacle because the lunare wrasse will get curious and nip at it every now and then. Which is why my star comes out mainly at night.

    My dragon wrasse died while I was away, he was killed by my lunare wrasse. That was very uncommon of my lunare wrasse, so I plan on getting another one. But I wont let it get killed next time.

    Thank you, well you might not have a problem with the anemone as long as the water parameters don't get out of control from the waste, and you provide adequate lighting. One thing I learned the hard way is that the picasso triggers have erratic mood swings and can get very aggressive towards other fish, and might end up killing the clowns. You could try some of the less aggressive triggers and do well though.

    Thank you, unfortunately lately I've been very busy and have neglected the tank some. I haven't had the time or even the money to maintain it properly.
