Consider them dead. They won't survive the Pink Face. They get to be a solid 6"+ and are much better suited to a FOWLR tank than a reef tank.

Labridae (wrasses) is a family of fish you should never buy unless you know the ID. They are a big group of fish which range from under 3" and totally reef-safe to 5 feet and soooo not reef safe. You will commonly see fish from the Labridae family in the LFS that grow to almost 2 feet, so be careful!
