Let Me ID Your Wrasse!

Looks like a female M. meleagris to me.

 

[Seanislav]

Yup...also referred to as a Guineafowl Leopard.

Thank you all! She is settled into QT. She ate already which is amazing. She also has been swimming around. I was expecting an immediate dive into the sand.

I need ID on these 3 please. At the lfs. First is a separate fish from 2 and 3.

Difficult to say for certain on the first but I think that both of the first two are P. flavianalis. Third one I think is something in C. cyanopleura complex. I'm sure @evolved or @eatbreakfast will check in soon.

I'd say the third is C. lubbocki

Hi everyone! I wanted to know if this is a female Flasher Wrasse or another type? I have the male (above) but the LFS wasn't sure on the species of the smaller one. If it's a female should I take her out now to avoid future conflicts with the existing male?

Stethojulis trilineata

The LFS says this is a Diana Hogfish..is it? If not, what is it and is it reef safe?

Not a wrasse, Pseudochromis aldabraensis, a dottyback.

Close but the Coral Hogfish, Bodianus mesothorax, not mobile invertebrate safe.

Will it change to make or remain female? If it stays as female is this the color or will color be the same
