Anyone got a name for this wrasse? LFS has it listed as “Purple wrasse”, and don’t know the actual name for it. It’s definitely more purple than the photo shows.

That’s Pseudodax moluccanus, the chiseltooth wrasse. These aren’t reef safe however I can’t think why they aren’t off the top of my head.
