Can anyone help me tell sex of McCosker's flasher ?

[joegoersch]

I just bought 3 McCosker's flasher wrasses. I was told they were all females and that one would become a male. I've read it's easy to tell males form females due to brighter coloration of males. These all look pretty bright to me. They just came out of hiding and are eating. Can anyone tell me if the are all males or what ? They seem to get along, but hard to say as they are still skittish and running from my diamond goby who is protecting his turf ! Thanks!

i would guess males as well. my female has just as bright orange and red body color, but the blue strips and the fin colors are dulled out. These all look pretty male

I guess I better move them into my other tank. Any hints on how to catch them ? I can't take the rockwork out, and any time I get close to them they bolt into the rocks !!!

I caught a flame angel with a 2L soda bottle. Go on you tube and search fish trap with two letter bottle.
