    So liveaquaria says that eye-spots on the dorsal fin is a female, but other websites contradict that, saying eye-spots are a characteristuc of the male...any ideas? Are Wardley wrasses the same as Christmas wrasses? They appear similar but from a specimen at my LFS i noticed spots on the tail.us
