Not sure, it looks kinda like this but there are a lot of female wrasses that look similar. Only a few have the black dot on the tail.

This will help a lil- juvis are dificult to ID-BTW where did u get her.
perhaps red fairy wrasse. Hard to tell when they are juvis.
But if u got her locally the options are less in terms of species, not many LFS carry wrasses other than common ones.

I tried finding the pictures of several juvenille wrasses which were posted by Tanaka on this thread but couldn't locate them. The thread has split I dont know how many times. So, there are a lot of pages to sort through but its the only place I know to look. Good luck
