I got a few boxes of fish from the Philippines yesterday. There are a few of these Wrasses that are not what they were brought in as. I'm sure that they are still settling in, but I would much rather figure out what they are than call them the I don't know random Fairy Wrasse. Does anyone know what species I have here?

All 3 pics are the same fish. The bottom two pictures that I posted he is snuggled up to a Blue Throated Sailfin Fairy Wrasse.

Temminckii Fairy Wrasse. Looks very much like. They have that blue line on bottom jaw.

The middle of the three photos shows;
Cirrhilabrus temminicki
Cirrhilabrus cyanogularis
Cirrhilabrus roseafascia
All three are Transitional Phase Males.
