smile.gif OK, I fell for that one! What is that? And OMG, I guess I'm a chicken with things bigger then me in the water, is it as big as it looks or is it the camera angle. I keep looking at the pic, OMG, you need to dig a pond for that! Was he afraid of you guys or friendly and curious?

What is he and how big was he?

I was just about to say you'll need a tank of at least 10-20 gallons rolleyes.gif But I think you may need something a little larger! blink.gif biggrin.gif

Wow! It's huge! Yeah, what is it?!!!!

This is a Humphead Wrasse.... they have recorded the weight of these to get to over 400lbs... And yes that is this ones true size!!! Big guy isn't he!!!

Wow, amazing shot of an amazing fish!! Judging by how much swimming space wrasses need, I'd venture to say you'd need a tank that is several million gallons. Good luck fitting that into your living room. wink.gif
