Wrasse experts identify this wrasse

[unklez]

I just got back from the LFS and i saw a unnamed wrasse for 37 bux.
Im no expert on wrasse but I didnt ask for its name as not to alert them, since i think this may be a CHOATI wrasse?

Looks like a Timor Wrasse, but the picture is hard to tell

Crap you're right thanks for identifying.

 

[i cant think]

Yeah it’s a Halichoeres timorensis and needs a sandbed (They tend to stress out more without a sand bed that covers their body).

I agree it’s a Timor Wrasse, gets up to about 5” / 13cm. Will need a sand bed as with all wrasses of this genus.
