Yellow Tail Corris Wrasse

[Deano1956]

My newest member in my tank is this 9"+ wrasse. I saw it on craigslist and called about it and got him for 50.00. Nice fish to watch swim and bury itself in the sand.

I used to have a 6in coris in my reef, they are good fun to watch!

now the yellow tails are the gaimard wrasse? no?

Coris gaimard gaimard is the yellow tail, Coris gaimard africana is predominantly green and no yellow tail.
I do believe they both have the same juvenile colour though.
