Let Me ID Your Wrasse!

[Cstar_BC]

C. lubbocki in the first photo, and it's probably C. rubripinnis in the second photo, but I would need a closer photo to be sure.

I’ll take your word for it - even googling what’s you said it didn’t 100% match but it’s hard to find juvi pics so I’ll chalk it up to that
They have two dusky wrasse as well that I’m definitely getting

Lubbocki has two different variants, this one is found in the Philippines.

Hi I think you all know what this is but I thought it was a cool pic as it’s hard to capture this guy because he’s lighting fast lol

I'll take a stab (and Hunter will tell me how wrong I am ): Halichoeres iridis and Cirrhalibrus rubriventralis.

Halichoeres iridis is correct, but the other is C. rubeus.

Ah ok, I see it now, thanks! Much to learn I still have.

You're kinda right; there was a reclassification a few years ago that made a distinction.

Thanks so much guys for the quick replies.

Sorry but these are the best pics I could get. Store has it as a generic “flasher wrasse”, but I’m leaning towards a fairy of some sort. I’m just getting into wrasses so I have a lot to learn.

Looks like a P. Carpenteri to me ... Carpenter flasher.

Could easily be wrong.
