Looks like a Blue Lined Wrasse (Stethojulis albovittata)

Kind of looks like a banana wrasse. If it is: aggresive/ jumper/ non reef safe.
Google banana wrasse or go here:

I think simon is on the right track, I think it is either a stethojulis albovittata or a stethojulis bandanensis. the reason for thinking this is the bright neon blue lines and the red colour above the fin. I will get a better pic. as soon as he comes out of hiding, the first pic is not all that great.
