Pseudocheilinus dispilus

[RobertK]

Hi,
Saw one of these at LFS today. It was a cool little fish. Looked like a little eightline wrasse. Can't find much about it. Has anyone kept one? I'm wondering how it compares to the others in the genus, especially in terms of its disposition.
Thanks,
Robert

Here is a video of a possible pair.

Yep, that's it. Are those yours?

The pair belongs to a friend of mine. The fish looks just like an 8-line at first glance but it is way more orange with pink/purple lines. I can't wait to see what a supermale looks like with the facial markings fully developed.

Has your friend put them in a reef tank with other fish? If so, do you know what other fish they are in with and how they interact and get along with the others?

Someone sent me this link to a picture of a supermale.
