Cirrhilabrus cf. pylei, male.Here are some crappy pictures but I can not figure out what he is.
Thanks brother.Cirrhilabrus cf. pylei, male.
Paracheilinus filamentosus.ID please
Yeah, that's a male Cirrhilabrus scottorum. Unfortunately, in captivity they almost always lose their bright colors in captivity and can be aggressive to other fairy wrasses.
This one was lavender purple with black dorsal fins in the store. No signs of green blue or pink.
I take it home and in QT it goes. Now it looks nothing like I purchased.
It was labeled as Scott's fairy wrasse Fiji.
Can someone confirm please? And tell me more about it?

I saw that fish in the store when I bought my trigger! and I was thinking what a pretty shade of purple she was! Crazy, how she looks completely different!

Halichoeres biocellatus.
Yes, Cirrhilabrus rubriventralis.I'm curious on this species that was in my old tank.
It was sold to me as a Paracheilinus flasher wrasse, so I thought my subsequent wrasse additions would be safe. This fish pecked the eyeballs out of my C. solorensis that was in is cocoon, badgered a melanurus to death, and is suspected in the death of a yellow watchman goby before I dismantled the tank to catch him. I have pictures of him flashing if those would help.
I'm suspecting C. rubriventralis?

*EDIT* Actually it's a C. rubeus, but had been known as rubriventralis for many years, but only recently seperated as it's own species.Yes, Cirrhilabrus rubriventralis.
