    Help identifying Wrasse

    I was looking at Liveaquaria.com and it looks most like the yellowfin flasher wrasse but without the point midway in the dorsal fin could this possibly be a female or still a juvenile that has not gotten big enough yet?

    To much flow?

    That was something I had not given any thought to thanks for the food for thought. If I have a powerhead that provides alot of flow would I be better off pointing it at the glass to try and help the flow diffuse before it goes right over my rock and coral?
