Thalassoma hardwicke or not?

[coriii]

Took these bad quality pics at LFS the other day. I think this is a kind of Thalassoma, and the owner at the shop said they have it labeled as Thalassoma hardwicke. They also added it is a juvenile so I suppose it’s still female? Although fishbase states maturity comes at around 3+ inches… this one is way beyond that.

I am not so sure that’s actually it, can anyone either confirm or correct me if I’m wrong?

Thank you!

Agree, that it’s not Thalassoma Hardwicke, even juveniles have faint bars, but I’m not sure what it is.

I’ll bump your thread for you to get more eyes on it.

Thank you! Hopefully someone can figure it out!
