Can I add another wrasse with my 6 lined wrasse?

[dmack]

I have a 90g tank with a small 6 lines wrasse. I'm thinking of adding a McCosker's wrasse. Are they compatable?

No. The sixline will likely kill any flasher wrasse in the long run.

+1. My sixline wrasse killed two radiant wrasses, a lubbock's fairy, and a yellow fin fairy, as well as a firefish. Most aggressive little fish I've ever kept.

Thanks you very much for the info.

The sixlines are bullies for sure, especially to other wrasses in smaller tanks. If you don't love the sixline, you could remove it and have so many more fish options than with the sixline.

Like I said in your other thread. I'd kick out the six line. It would greatly open up stocking choices for you.

 

[snorvich]

I agree with Korrine
