Cirrhilabrus rhomboidalis is a rhomboid wrasse or diamond-tail fairy wrasse. Not a parrot fish.​

I just want to clear this up.
Over here in the UK since parrotfish and wrasses are in the same main family, they go under the name of parrotfish. Wrasses not matter what it is goes under the name of dwarf parrot and parrotfish go under the name parrotfish. Parrotfish are under the subfamily of Scaridae whereas wrasses are in the general family of Labriidae.

As for photos of Cirrhilabrus rhomboidalis, here’s a few:
Males will look like this:
