Should have been reported a Butchers Prick is Bodianus unimaculatus

Got in trouble from Fishbase for adding it to the list of common names once

First one, I just use the generic "wrasse" for anything in that family so as not to be driven crazy by the gazzillion slighty different coloured ones that pop up every now and then.

Second one, rock whiting is what I call them, but they are also known as bar faced weavers. Usually just off whiting areas over some livish rubly bottom when you get them.
