Hello Reef2reef. Picked up this wrasse today. I'm not sure of the ID. I think it's a pink margin but not sure, I'm just not familiar with this particular wrasse. Hope the pics how as I'm acclimatize it then going into qt tank. Also is ot male or female ?

Looks like a fairy wrasse many kinds, or flasher Kind of looks like a naoko fairy.

Agree , it looks similar to a few wrasse. I'm not familiar with this coloration. It's definitely not a Naoko , I've had a few of those before. I know my pics aren't very good. When it goes in the tank I will take better pics
 
Maybe a longfin fairy wrasse?

The pattern on the dorsal and anal fins look right and the top photo looks like it has the long thin fin on the dorsal.

I'm no expert so take it with a grain
