Flasher ID please

[piusma]

Got this fish when it was a juvie and I wonder if anyone could help me ID it?

Not a great image but shows it's colour and it's fins for ID. I bought this fish as a juvie Carpenter but I have no experience in how a carpenter looks like. Thanks for help

filamentous maybe?

That's why I needed advise. It's fins are somewhat resembles fliamented flasher but I have seen a juvie fliamented and the fins are much more elongated. Mine has a wierd fin shape which looks like somewhat in between a fliamented and carpenter. Would like to hear more from experts please.

i think we would need some better (healed images) of his body and fins, whos pickin on him?

his top fin is not damaged, it has always been like that. His bottom fin is indeed seemed to be slightly damaged. I have a couple of fairy wrasse and a couple other dominant fish would chase him when he flashes. Otherwise, they do not pick on him.

the top fin looks to have experienced fin rot at some stage. The postanal fin seems to be completely yellow which would rule out carpenters and filamentous.

Which one of the wrasse on this page does it best resemble?

At first glance I would go carpenters but the tail color looks more like a filamentous. Juvie and females looks so similar its hard to say.
