I checked them out. And yeah. It does look like a sixbar wrasse! I am convinced it is one. Good guess! :)

It's a little hard to tell what this is from this angle, but it's shaped like a wrasse, so my best guess is a sixbar wrasse. Often the 6th stripe is very small, appearing almost like a spot right on the tail (like in this pic!). It's the only fish I can think of with the pink markings on the head and then the vertical stripes behind it. Check out some of these pictures, see what you think! http://www.fishbase.org/Photos/Thumbnail...
