Red fin or Delebius Fairy wrasse

Wrasses can be hard to identify! That black mark/spot near the tail suggests this is a female Red-fin Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus adornatus) - also called the Debelius Fairy Wrasse. It was scientifically described in 1998, and is known from seas around Sumatra.
 
Thank you very much MikeG ! I guess the second name is in honor of Prof. Debelius, the famous german marine scientist / photographer ?
