Wrasse ID

[tundraguy1106]

Hey,
I purchased this wrasse months ago. It was sold to me as a juvenile orange back wrasse however it has yet to change to those colors. Maybe it is and just hasn’t changed yet. It doesn’t look like an orange back to me though. Anyone have any thoughts?

cyanopluera maybe, but more likely cf. cyanopleura

The black spot on his tail makes me think it’s not an orange back.
