P. carpenteri or P. mccoskeri - need to see the fins a bit better in order to distinguish. How many dorsal filaments are present?

It's a male, regardless.
Correct- only 1 filament then mccoskeri; more than 1 is carpenteri.Thank you for the reply !!! so hard to get a picture of but it looks to me like there's just one small dorsal filament... If that's the case it would make it a sub adult male mccoskeri correct ?
Wrong genus.This guy at my LFS today was labeled "Assorted Fairy Wrasse", but I'm thinking its P.mccoskeri or carpenteri
H. timorensis, male.Hi Hunter... was reading through your reef safe wrasse article (which is very informative)... and wanted to know what one of the wrasses pictured was... couldn’t find it anywhere. This is the photo from your article:
H. timorensis, male.
Thanks. A fish long of the past now, but from Diver's Den maybe in... 2011?He’s beautiful... can I ask where you got him?
95% sure, yes.C. shutmani? (I hope)
Halichoeres biocellatus
Halichoeres chloropterusLFS said it was a trade in
I'd need to see the fins - could be either mccoserki or carpenteri from that view.Apologies for the terrible photo but: mccoskeri right? Just double checking as he's recently coloured up a lot, assuming finishing the transition to full male and with it has come quite the attitude change towards my p. flavianalis (also full male)! I wish I had taken the chance to add a third flasher species back when I stocked my tank in order to balance any aggression from the most dominant fish, I wonder if it's too risky now.

Adding a third could be possible now, but best done with an acclimation box.
