Yes, juvie Hemigymnus melarapterus, thicklip wrasse.This one I think I know. Not for sure. I will say it is a juvenile. Tough to get a good photo. This is about an inch long...

YepThat is a P. lineopunctatus, Linespot Flasher Wrasse.
Sorry, your suspicion is right. Pseudocheilinus evanidusTrying to ID this guy. Was sold to me as a Pink Streaked Wrasse but I'm not convinced that what it is.
Thanks! I thought so. He is a great little fish. Always swimming about. No problem with the other fishies either.Sorry, your suspicion is right. Pseudocheilinus evanidus
CorrectHey @evolved and @eatbreakfast not the best pic but either one of you know what Pseudojuloides this is? I was thinking Splendens given the orange head and developing orange on the dorsal. Thanks!
Thanks! He seems to be eating mysis.Correct
Not to be offensive, but that simply looks like a Halichoeres chrysus with the saturation turned up to 11 to me...Not my wrasse, this photo's from Jourdy's reef. I still have no idea what it is but it's gorgeous. At first I just thought red coris wrasse but they have white markings.
Idk I trust Jourdy's photos and I'm pretty sure the ultra bright colors are just as a result of the blue light. Do you think the light could have tilt shifted the wrasse's color? (along with maybe a gel filter to make photos easier?) Buffing up saturation to 100 wont make the color yellow into bright red, but maybe the lighting and camera tricks could have.Not to be offensive, but that simply looks like a Halichoeres chrysus with the saturation turned up to 11 to me...
Please ID this guy for me. He’s been quarantined and now in his acclimation box. Thanks!Got a wrasse but have no idea what species it is? Post it here with a good, clear picture and I'll ID it for you. If you can capture a photo with the fins flared out, all the better. :wink:
And go!
Cirrhilabrus filamentosusPlease ID this guy for me. He’s been quarantined and now in his acclimation box. Thanks!
@evolved, thank you for the ID. Unfortunately, it looks like I made a mistake based on your compatibility chart. I have a McCoskers flasher as well as the C. Filamentosus in my acclimation box. I was hoping to add a couple of other flashers or fairies to go into my 180 gallon tank as well. Since the filamentosus is aggressive, should I take him back? What would you do?Cirrhilabrus filamentosus
Yeah, unfortunately that one never plays well with others. Don't add it if you have or want flashers.@evolved, thank you for the ID.
