Friend dropped these off to me today, caught wild near Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.

They dont stay still so a clear pic is near impossible.



Thanks

Hi,
Quick question.
Do you know if a Flame Parrot Wrasse is the same as a Flame faery wrasse?

Im struggling to understand a list of species that a new LFS is offering me.

Hello, I got this wrasse a few months ago. I believe it’s a gray headed wrasse, with a dusky photo bombing.

Hi anyone recognize this Wrasse. I was told it was a Diamond Tail Flasher Wrasse but I am not so sure.

Thank you.

This is a diamond tail

This is a diamond tail

Those are both the same species. That's the difference of a transitional male v. a terminal male.

Gets large (over a foot) and will eat any motile inverts. Probably safe-ish with corals, but might flip/bury/knock them over.
