Hi Guys. I have an established reef aquarium. It is a 150 gallon tall with five fish and mixed coral. I currently have a powder blue tang, sixline wrasse, royal gramma, hippo tang, and a clown fish. I want to add some anthias but I am so afraid. The six line and powder blue bullied a fairy wrasse to death a couple of months ago and it was horrible. Please help! Am I gong to be able to add some of these anthias and if so which do you recommend? If not, can I add any more fish without having to give away the powder and wrasse??
Thank you so much.

I have a sixline and a powder blue with about 8-9 different species of anthias...the six didn't bother any of them, but the powder blue had to be removed for awhile when I added my PQs and Bartletts. I added all the other anthias without any problems, but every fish may act differently some being more aggressive than others....have a spare tank set up just in case.
 
I would add a trio all at once, that way the harassment will be spread out and the anthias will be more willing to hold there ground as a group.
 
Thanks guys. I am thinking of getting three at once. I will let you know how it goes. If you can think of anything else, please post!
