The Bird Wrasse Gomphosus varius, is a beautiful emerald green fish in its male form, known as the Green Bird Wrasse, and as a female it is white, sprinkled with tiny black spots in front that fades to a dark brown or black mid body to the tail, and is known as the Brown Bird Wrasse or Black Bird Wrasse. They have a unique body shape that sets them apart from other Wrasses. With a long beak like mouth, they can move between branches of coral and tight cracks and crevices in the live rock, to find crabs, mollusks and other small inverts.
