Hi All,
A few days ago, I picked up a friend’s wrasse, which was getting bullied and was quite in bad shape...
I’m trying to identify exactly which paracheilinus it may be and I’m a bit lost since male/female juvenile might not look the same...
Would someone know exactly which one it may be?
Thanks!!

Looks like a McCoskers wrasse

Indeed, I thought the same however “upper/dorsal” fin seems much larger on internet.. we will see if he gets better, he’s laying on the sand most of the time, can’t really find why... maybe the flasher wrasse habit to sleep hiding in rocks ..
