Can anyone ID these wrasses for me?

#1 is not a wrasse but rather a Pseudochomis

#2 looks to be either a Macropharyngodon sp. or Anampses sp.

#3 looks like an intermediary of a Coris sp.

#4 is Thalassoma lucasanum, commonly sold as a "Cortez Wrass"

Going through fishbase.org using those genus names should get good ID's on the others

Thank you so much.... I have some eel pics that need IDing as well. Anyone want to take a shot at these?

1st is a Tessellata i believe, but i could be mistaken.
2nd looks like it could be an undulated which are wicked mean =/, hopefully im wrong there. here is a post about an undulated eel... like i said, i really do hope im wrong.. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/s...hreadid=1239181
that eel could also be a black edged or chainlink but i am not entirely sure..
3rd i honestly have no idea, sorry =/

sorry i wasnt much help

3rd wrasse is a formosa wrasse (coris formosa).

Eels are: Gymnothorax favagineus, then Gymnothorax undulatus, then two color variants of Gymnothorax eurostus.
