Divers Den Cirrhilabrus roseafascia wrasse question

[sugartooth]

Hello,
I would like to find out if the wrasse pictured in your divers den section is female or male?

I'm unfamiliar with how they look through the stages of maturation but I am looking for this same fish as featured in Reefkeeping Magazine:

Thank you in advance for the help.

sugartooth,

Thank you for contacting us. We checked with our Aquaculture Coral & Marine Life Facility and the fish that is pictured is a male. The picture that is posted in the 2006 Reef Keeping Magazine is a Super Male Cirrhilabrus roseafascia. It is also a beautiful fish.

If you have any further questions please contact us at 1-800-334-3699.
