May be this is silly, but at this point I rely do need some help:confused:. I currently have McCoskeri, which was almost an impulse bye. The plan was to get a 4 or 6-line. Other fish in the 200L (no sand, softy reef) are a medium hippo tang and a percula (nothing was added to the tank for 3+ years). Other planned fish are a tail-spot blenny, an orchid dottyback (may be replaced with a cheaper and much easier to find purple dotty, but some say they are aggressive. Are they?) and a trio of green chromis. Question is can I still get a 6line safely with McCoskeri, or do I have to re-think the plan? I know 6lines and alike may be aggressive; the question is what is it likely to become aggressive towards… Any input on the list and possible substitutions welcome:strange:.

Lined wrasses are not compatible with flasher and fairy wrasses. Dottybacks and lined wrasses are not going to do well together.
 
Thank U! And what about a combination of a flasher + orchid dottyback? Is that any good?

Well P. fridmani is one of the least aggressive dottybacks so your chances are significantly better unless you have a very small tank.
