Chiseltooth wrasse, Pseudodax moluccanus. They are reef safe when small, but may go after motile inverts when older.
 
I have one for well over a yr and it's awesome supposedly get pretty big when I bought mine it looked like urs but has changed lost the yellow maybe 6 " now I'll see if I can snap a pic I really like this fish it's been peaceful and the beak is cool mine chomps on the Lr a lot I'm assuming that's how it keeps it's beak in check another thing I noticed is it will eat fish poop if I don't feed to heavy it's the only fish I've had that will actually eat fish poop not spit it out just a great ime hardy interesting fish maybe not a fish I would get if I had limited space but in lg tank he's been great
