Flame Wrasse supermale replacement?

[schwaggs]

I recently lost the supermale in my flame wrasse trio. Can I add a new one or am I asking for trouble? The remaining 2 "females" fought for a week or so after the supermale dissapeared so I'm not sure they are both females.

What do you think?

How recently? I think the terminal transformation would take several weeks, if not months. Do they still look like females?

They look the same as they always have. Not sure they both are females, one has always had a faint, male stripe so it might be a jr male (not sure what the proper term is).

I would think a newly introduced supermale would be fine. They are pretty passive.
