This is a New Zealand Sandager's Wrasse.
They're also called Tāngahangaha. These wrasses form harems with a dominant male. If the male dies the dominant female changes sex and takes over as the male.

A beautiful wrasse in an oyster hoister. Hopefully Scottish Gov are reviewing the wrasse fishery in light of the science on the breeding season. #Wrasse are caught to service #salmon farms who use this 'keystone species' to eat their lice before discarding them.

Three days into my knit every day challenge in support of @alzheimersresearchuk.org
I am aiming for a sea creature a day but the fiddler crab was fiddly to make.
2 creatures down and some progress on a jumper too.

Here's a photo montage of a lure fishing session I had for Ballan Wrasse in Falmouth, Cornwall.
All were caught on soft plastic lures with weedless hooks so I could fish amongst the kelp that the wrasse seemed to enjoy foraging in. #seafishing #lurefishing #wrasse
