Not much info on this guy, also known as the Yellowface or Green wrasse.

Does anyone have any experience with this species? Adopted one from a reefer who was redoing their fish population and wanted to downsize, this fish is close to 6". The LFS had it marked as H hortulanus, but as it grew out of it's juvenile form it obviously wasn't a Checkerboard.

Other than being large, its interactions both in his tank and mine has been fairly similar to a melanurus. Just curious what I may have gotten myself into, there isn't much documentation online of these in captivity. Previous owner had kept it for about 3 years.

Thanks in advance, internet photo for reference.
