Looks like a twinspot coris wrasse. :)

Yeah... that's a little baby twin spot
Aka Coris aygula
They get 4 foot long and very aggressive. Be very cautious.

Yea, you only see them (and the other coris) as innocent babies in the LFS and people buy them not knowing what monsters they become...

You never see the adult Coris in shops.

If only they stayed that way...

My adult red coris I did buy 5-6" long, but that was because someone locally broke down their tank.

I did not know it was a frag flipper-over-er though, and while it is GORGEOUS, I am regretting it. :(

Me too. Especially when LFSs force you to take one… mine is 6-7 inches. Huge. I thought mine was an adult boy was I wrong
