Halichoeres nebulosus

[Matt]

Anyone have any experience keeping this fish?

I have a juvenile in QT now (picking at the tons of pods very happily). I caught it whilst rockpooling down in Okinawa at the weekend. Before anyone flames me this is perfectly legal here in Japan (corals and L/R are however off limits).

There does not seem to be a whole lot of info available (other than fishbase). Are these wrasse reefsafe? Need to know which tank to put him/her in.

Cheers

Matt

Here's a little info, it's not much:

I would assume that it's like a lot of other Halichoeres wrasses: won't bother your corals, but may munch on shrimp and crabs. Good luck with it, and let us know how it does.
