The Napolean Wrasse is a really beautiful creature. For a fish, it looks thoughtful. These ones are about 2 feet long, still only juveniles. Their colour will deepen and the humps above their eyes will become much more pronounced as they get older. The largest will grow up to seven feet. These will not get the chance.
They normally live in the waters around the reefs in the south Pacific, such as around

The ones that we fed had a head and body shape exactly like that, but they were iridescent orangey and bluey. So probably a wrasse but a different kind.
