also anyone who has owned one notice that some can be orange with a bright red fins ?

They can be kept together in a 75g together, though some have noted that C. rubriventralis can be aggressive toward other fairy wrasses, my own experiences have not shown that to be true.

Yes, C. rubripinnis can often appear to be more of a dark orange, and as far as red fins both species Latin name translates to such a meaning. Rubripinnis = red foot and rubriventralis = red ventral fins.

I've found rubripinnis to be pretty bold too so they may be perfect for each other. Very pretty fish when it's flashing though.
