Is there such a thing as a "dwarf lubbocks wrasse" or is it just a small lubbock's wrasse?

thanks every1 for your comments i actually am pretty surprized that this nano has turned out so nicely since i came from a 180G sps tank i didnt have high hopes for such a small tank but its done surprisingly well and has done much better than i thought it would its been super easy to care for so much different than my old 180g tank this one is so low maintenance and low cost which is what i like these days

ive run xm 20k and they make your rocks look like that in the photos because the purple cannont be remedied by adjusting white balances. Im a photo student with high end gear and even i had a hard time with that light.

Even if it was saturated, be happy it is yours. I can't make my pics look like that even if they are saturated.
