At NY Aquatics, they have an unidentified species of fairy wrasse!

Look at this beauty! The bright aqua on the chin makes it look like it might be flashing, but the rest of it looks relaxed, so I don't know. And if that is it's relaxed coloration, just imagine the nuptial displays! :eek1:

I am not entirely convinced it is not an aberrant or recessive traited C. tonozukai, but still fairly rare either way.

Calling Evolved!! What do you think? Pretty sweet no matter what it is.

I think I agree with TJ. Furthermore, pictures of this species/variant/hybrid/aberrant have been captured before; I wouldn't call it "new".

Beyond that, I think I can't believe the price tag...
