Too fast and random to get a good pic when it really flashes.

Flashers are some of the most beautiful fish ever

I got one too yesterday, I think it´s a Yellowfin Flasher Wrasse (Paracheilinus flavianalis) am I correct?

Need to se the dorsal/anal fins to make that call. It's a Yellow fin or McCoskers, but it hints at the latter right now.

He has SO much personality. I was trying to get some shots of corals but he kept photo bombing me haha.

He's purdy, mine won't flash since being added to the display, too many bigger intimidating wrasses I guess.

Sorry if this has been a repeat question & I understand ea fish is different
But I have a carpenters, McCoskers & Lubbocks in a 210, all seem to be well
I inherited a filament & it's in my 29 cube for QT, I'm wondering if it will be ok to introduce him to the 210 ? Generally speaking would it be safe?

It should be fine, but an acclimation box will help the new guy from getting too intimidated by initial aggression that usually dies down relatively quickly.

Thanks
I'll look into getting 1

Well I've just finished reading this entire thread and all I can say is I'm in love.

I have recently been affected by the Flasher Addiction.

As I'm new to these magnificent fish could some of you Flasher Gurus please help me ID my fish?

I have attempted to ID but would like a more experienced eye cast over my pics. Sorry about the poor quality of photography.
