Thank you so much! I did suspect they were wrasses but couldn't find a color match in the Fish ID books (which I do have)!They're wrasses.
Trying to identify wrasses based on color is a good way to lose alot of money as you buy all the Fish ID books.
But, having done so already, I can tell you they are indeed Yellowhead wrasses. The two lines radiating up and back from the eyes is characteristic of this species.
