Help with identifying wrasse

[loup]

I picked her up sold as a female eightline flasher wrasse. But as she grew, I doubt she is one as I have a male eightline flasher. Can one of the expert help me identify her?

This is Cirrhilabrus sp. 3, the Kenya fairy wrasse, a species in the rubriventralis complex and a clse relative to the Kwazulu fairy wrasse. The difference between the 2 is sp3 belly is white and the kwazulu has a completely yellow belly.

Awesome. Finally put a name to my unknown. Thanks.

(and they might actually be variants of the same species; we'll need genetic testing for that)

I had one for a few years, mine was very docile and a great citizen, stuck to own side of the tank though and was never chased by any other fish.

Each can have their own personality though, the ones I have seen were quite aggressive towards other wrasses. I had to remove one male because he relentlessly harassed a mixed group of flashers and a solorensis and a lubbocks.

Likewise.

Yeah, most variants of the rubriventralis complex tend to be a bit ornery. Not one I'd attempt with other wrasses.

Mine has been mellow. Had her, now him, for a year now. Just recently added first fairy and no issue. The lineatus and earlei keeps everyone in check.
