idk. doesn't look like a wrasse to me. may be a anthias or cardinalfish.
 
I am not sure what wrasse that it but it is for sure a Fairy. A good buddy of mine has one with the same patterns here in a local shop. He received it in a group of assorted fairies. The first I had seen before.
 
It's for sure a wrasse, the only thing I can come up with is a juv. Lubbocks.

+1 Definitely is a Lubbocks Fairy Wrasse. I have one that looks just like that one. The ones that have the two distinct purple lines like this one are from the Philipines I believe. I think the more mottled looking ones are from Indonesia.
