I've been thinking that this was a six line wrasse but after looking closer it appears to be a four line?.. is it as simple as just counting the lines? Are these more valuable than six line?.. i'm excited! It's like i have a new fish!

They are pretty close in aggression to sixlines. Fourlines habe a much more limited range, being a Hawaiian endemic. It's colors are different from a sixline.
 
Over here six lines are very cheap and you'd pay 6-7 times the price for a 4 line.
 
I've never had a 6 line i liked. They all turned into bullys.

They are only bullies if the other fish can't stick up for themselves. I've had my sixline a few years and he's never bothered anything. It does live on its own though;)
