I'll try to get a better pic when it comes out.
I was looking at the female lineatus
Very close IMO

Did you get one? Those are nice!

There's nothing wrong with enjoying looking at the surface of the ocean itself, except that when you finally see what goes on underwater,you realize that you've been missing the whole point of the ocean. Staying on the surface all the time is like going to the circus and staring at the outside.

Male lineatus. Very nice fish. Where did you get it from?

I thought that was a female but maybe male cause it has stunning colors.

looks like a scotts wrasse, they come in various colors, mine is dark blue, purple, and blue bodied with gold fins and is a rock star in my tank! I will add my scott's is not very aggressive and had to bemoved till the rainbow wrasse is caught and moved since the rainbow has become a bully now, always the problems with wrasses.

Nice fish! How do you come up with a male Lineatus (a nice one at that) and not know what it is? Major score. The ones with more yellow are the best IMO, like yours.

if this is the one you are talking about it is probably a scott's wrasse, they might be even sweeter than a lineateus IMO, look at their varieties here depending on what part of the world they are from. Ive had 2 first died as it was so shy it never came out. https://www.google.com/search?q=scott%27s+wrasse&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjdqJi6ibTLAhUU92MKHTrTBgoQ_AUIBygB&biw=1280&bih=933

Thanks for info appreciate it!😀 My swimming around on the open. Happy with him it looks like he has some real nice colors hidden under there. Kind of faded little stressed when I got him. Hopefully he colors up.
