Dusky and Kuiteri wrasse new partners?

[locuus]

I recently lost the male of my Dusky wrasse pair, and am looking to add either a male or a female, and wanted advice on best choice for introduction. I have the same query with regard to a lone Kuiteri wrasse. Would either or cause an issue with current inhabitants?

An established dusky may not tolerate a new dusky being added. If you were to try I would try to get a young juvenile as this would less likely be the target of aggression.

That's what I'm worried about in both cases.
The male Dusky had just started showing its peacock colours, so I'm quite gutted. I'd been searching out a pair for a while.
Kuiteri has been solo for a while, so I'm not sure whether to trust luck there.

I would also do both at the same time so nobody gets singled out for aggression. I would think adding a new Dusky would be the more risky of the two.

Any pics of your duskys? I have one I think is a male, given size and coloration, but am curious what a female looks like.

Females are black with white tails.
