Parajulis poecilepterus is a marine fish from the wrasse family with bright multicolored fins. It lives in tropical coral reefs and feeds on small animals.
This fish differs from other wrasses with very bright multicolored fins in males. It helps maintain balance on the reef by eating small invertebrates and serves as food for larger fish.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
