we all could do with a few more wrasses ! i just ran across the possibility of getting the ever so elusive anampses feminsus and am very close to getting six of them ! really a pretty cool hook up if i can get it done . like pulling teeth without pain meds though but i'm trying .
Gary the female/male is an awesome spectacle and just so much fun to see in action ,happens very quick too . when he turns into full male attire they are just stunning .nicccccce

I assume the top is female and the bottom male. Please clarify. Thank you.

I currently have four Leopards all large in the 4-6" range the largest being my male Ornate. Although they get mostly along there is some chasing with the Ornate not allowing the others to change to male.

Macropharyngodon negrosensis, the Black Leopard.

Female



And the Male, IMO themost beautiful of the Leopard Wrasse

My female is changing. I still have my male in my QT system, not have the time to catch him and transfer him to DT. I guess it is too late. Here is the changing soon to be male. This is the same wrasse I took picture of a few days ago above (the female). The facial stripes are forming and the white spots on the scales are going away. The scales edges are turning light, white-blue start at the tail.
