What kind of fish do I have?

I have a fish that's blue-ish with pink stripes and a green tail, and his eyes look like they're rimmed in gold. It's sort of tetra-shaped, and about 1 1/2" long. I bought it for $19.99 a couple of weeks ago, but I can't find the reciept to see what he is. I'd take a pic but I don't have my camera at home right now. Any ideas?

Maybe a sixline wrasse?

Thank you so much! I've been searching the net for 2 days looking for a pic that looks like my fish. Someone has offered me a lemonpeel angelfish and I want to make sure they'll get along.

Lemonpeel's are awesome, but not reef safe. I had one in my 125 until I decided to go reef.....He unfortunately had to go....tasted everything. It was really sad, because I had him for over 2 years in a fish only system. Very hardy and extremely pretty.

Karen,
From now on it would be a great idea to know what you're putting in your fish tank before you buy it.
