juvenile sold to me by lfs (in thousand oaks ca) as a "completely reef safe pencil wrasse that won't get much bigger"

i've had it for a few months and just did some research to properly ID it.:headwalls:

As someone who runs a fishroom, make them take it back. If I sold someone a fish and they ended up with a totally different fish that doesn't work for their setup, I'd let them return it. Don't expect a cash refund, but they should be willing to work with you.

this guy is a pain to get in the trap! all other fish swim in to eat except the one i need to catch... of course. any other suggestions to try to catch this thing?
