Thanks Lisa (sunfish11). Here's a photo of the same female back in July when I first got her:

Can you ID this?

I just got them from the LFS, and they're in pretty bad shape.
The one on the farthest left has been with me for a while now, and is healthy. I think it's an Angular Flasher Wrasse. It's the other 3 I'm having difficulties IDing.

They all look like Bluesided fairy wrasses. One male to the right and the 2 females in the middle. They come out of Bali alot.

Ooh, thanks a lot!
There seems to be a lot of different kinds, eh?

Got mine from the Philippines.
They are reef safe, right?
I was hoping they'd color up after a while.. but I guess they just really look drab.

got these nice pics of my yellowfin displaying..still one of my favorite fairys..it is amazing the color changes he goes through sometimes he is all red some times almost all white and then when he is really displaying his color is a red..with purple vertical stripes...i have not been able to get a clear pic of that but it does not last long a few seconds i am just going to have to be lucky!!!

very nice are those the replacements for your tongan flames??

 

[blface]

Not exactly. Replacements in the sense of I'm not getting the tongan flames now, but I still had to pay for them because they came from a different LFS.

wish i would have got a good pic while my laboutei was displaying this afternoon..i only saw it once but he turned a color i have only seen in books..the first pic was at the end and not the best in the world but you can see the color difference between it and the other pics that follow..i hope to catch that color i saw in a nice pic..but that was the first time i have ever seen him do that!!!
