Can i Add another wrasse

[Vince272992]

Hi I hav a 65gal reef with a mckoskers wrasse in it along with some more fish and I was wondering if it is possible to add another wrasse to th tank, I don't want not he mckoskers but maybe a 6 line, orange back, whip fin, Or blue wrasses,
My current mckoskers is about 1.6 in so just wondering if this is possible
THANKS

6-lines and whip-fins are pretty agressive. I would avoid those. Might be a little on the small end for a orange-back. Maybe you could do a tricolor or mccosker's female.

What are the other fish in the tank?

6-line would make short work of a McCosker's when it grows up a bit. From what I've heard, whip fin are fairly aggressive as well. Orange-backs are also somewhat aggressive for a fairy from some reading and questioning I have done on them in the past.

Yellow tang, pair of clowns,Bangii cardinal, and the mckoskers and if these wrasses are not very good juices then wht would be

How about a melanurus or yellow and purple wrasse? I have both and are model citizens, inexpensive, and provide nice color. The melanurus might pick on a crab or two but I've never really had a problem with mine in almost 3 years.

They are fine. I have a yellow tang also. They won't eat your coral and most like won't even eat a shrimp. I have all three and lots of crabs, shrimp etc.
