I presume that's a McCoskers. I bought one from DD last year. 99.9% percent of the time it looked like a small red fish. I found the flashing to be very rare (even with other wrasses in the tank). I eventually sold him to another reefer. I'd never get another one - I found it to be a very forgettable, uninteresting fish. I love wrasses, just not flashers.

I like the black tail McCosker's wrasse, beautiful fish.
Brett, is it possible that the one you had was a female? My Terminal Phase McCosker's is constantly flashing and he is the only wrasse of any kind in my tank. Mine is amazing and people are all the time asking me what kind of fish it is and how beautiful it is when it's flashing. Which is constant.

I have 4 flashers, when I had one there was not a lot of flashing...now there is a lot.

It was advertised as terminal phase male. Maybe I got super mellow one - the Jeff Lebowski of flasher wrasses...

Nobody likes the greyhead wrasse? They look very nice in person. My tank is bare bottom. Otherwise he would be mine.

I really do like those. The Halichoeres wrasses are my favorite.

I've always wanted a Vrolik or Greyhead wrasse. Saw them in person at LFS couple years ago and they looked amazing. I am surprised this one is still up for grabs.
HA...just got sold.

3-1/2" Maldivian Yellow Belly Regal Angelfish
Perfect size, just the price is a bit high. I pretty much paid that for 3 of my Sumatra Yellow Belly Regal Angels.
Also, from the coloration I would say it should be less than 3 inch in size.
It is a nice fish and I cannot believe it has not sold. I may just snatch it up myself.

It's the best way to show DD prices are fair instead of calling people out on their posts. Pull the trigger on that angel like :uzi:
PS
I guess you (or someone else) edited your post calling out ThRoewer

So, did you get it?
BTW: Blue Zoo has right now tiny (up to 2.5") Indian Ocean yellow belly regals for $249.95.

I just noticed that bluezoo has a WYSIWYG section: https://www.bluezooaquatics.com/productscc.asp?did=11.
And they have a barracuda (https://www.bluezooaquatics.com/productdetailcc.asp?did=11&cid=365&pid=24208).

Yep, and they sometimes have some seriously cool fish there.
Well for that you need something in the 5k to 20k gallon tank range as they will grow to about two meters.

Tigerpyge, for the low low price of $1000.
That could be Tigerpyge but to me it looks like a Smokey angel, lemon peel and half back hybrid instead of eibli. It doesn't have the tiger stripes that one would normally see on a Tigerpyge. Anyone else thinks so?

I wouldn't take it if it was for free.
This Pseudochromis perspicillatus is a cool fish and I would get it right away if they had also a female listed:
