Wrasse Identity

[guzz64]

I saw a wrasse I cant identify at a pet store. They call it a purple line wrasse. It is about 2.5 inches long. Dark purple almost black body, yellow stripe in tailfin, with a glowing purple stripe in a v shape on its head down the sides.

Does anyone know if it is reef safe, or what it may be? It is beautiful, but I dont want to put a killer in the tank.

thanks

It is listed as a juv. in the aquarium fishes book(not sure of name but white cover with blue lettering) which I don't have with me. It actually changes to a cool green wrasse as an adult. Don't remember the specifics of other stuff. I will look next time I am the LFS.

Pseudodax moluccanus is an exact match. Thanks for the input.
