Special thanks for the pictures of Cirrhilabrus marjorie to Hiroyuki Tanaka, Japan!!
Distribution
Western Central Pacific: endemic in Fiji.
Environment
reef-associated; depth range 20 - 50 m, usually 30 - 36 m.
Jumping guard
A jumping guard prevents (nocturnal) fish from jumping out.
Wrasses, blennies, hawkfishs and gobies jump out of an unprotected tank in fright if their night rest is disturbed, unfortunately these jumpers are found dried up in the morning on carpets, glass edges or later behind the tank.

A small night light also helps, as it provides the fish with a means of orientation in the dark!
