Wrasse ID Please

[kbriers]

Sorry these pictures don't show much. This wrasse is a red/crimson color with a lighter underside. It has small blue lines that run from the mouth area to the back of its head. I can't get any good pictures because it will not stay still long enough.

I paid 10 bucks for it and it has a neat personality so I couldn't pass it up.

Hard to tell from those pics

Yeah that's what I was afraid of. Have any guess? Not too concerned with actual species, just mainly wondering what "family" ex. fairy, flasher etc...

If I can figure out what family to start looking at, maybe I can identify it.

I would say fairy from what I can see or it's in the flasher family. Definitely one of the two but I would guess fairy first.

From the limited amount I can see:

Cirrhilabrus filamentosus
