Hi everyone,
My LFS just informed me they were able to get a female Carpenter's Flasher Wrasse (Paracheilinus Carpenteri), i asked them to place it on hold for me so i can go purchase it later today. This got me thinking about how they even know its a female Carpenter's Wrasse(in hopes that maybe it could be a female of another species that i have on my fish list ). I began to search the interwebs for some information on identifying the difference in species when it comes to female flashers but was unable to find any literature on this topic .
So my question is how do you guys identify what species of female flasher wrasse(Paracheilinus) you are looking at?
I was hoping some of you Wrasse experts could chime in here
P.S. If you know of any resources for this information please let me know ;Bookworm
