Almost a full adult, only the 1st line above the tail is forked, exactly where the break is in other fish shown here

7th line up from the tail, close to the 'mask' has a broken line. The forked 1st line up above the tail is clearly seen

Yes you can eat this fish. The reason it needs careful handling is because of the barbs on the tail which are venomous!

I checked out what you said, but still cannot find the matching wrasses, have thought they might be a type of Cardinalfish, or a juvenile of some sort!

Hi Thank you for that, now you have suggested it I can see the resemblance. Do you think it is a juvenile or and adult?

You would be grinning if you thought a tasty meal was on its way!! When they do bite its usually a quick nip and not too painful!

They are pussycats really as long as you don't leave your fingers around for them to nibble as I found out to my cost!!!
