Flasher Wrasse compatibility questions

[Jersh]

I was wondering about keeping a group of 4 male flasher wrasses, each one of differing species.

Should I avoid species of flasher wrasse that look similar, such as McCosker's and Carpenter's?

Ideally, I would want a McCosker's, Carpenter's, Linespot, and a blue flasher wrasse.

Any advice on, or shared experience in keeping, multiple male flasher wrasse would be appreciated.

How large is your tank?

It's doable with those four, but it hinges on that first question.

Sorry, I should've put that the tank size in there. It's a 180 gallon tank.

If you have chance, put them all in same time...

 

[Jersh]

Yea, I planned on buying them all at once.

In a 180 gallon tank, it should be doable.

In a 180 it will work, just make sure the tank is covered, as they are big time jumpers.

Yes. They are prolific and highly talented jumpers and egg crate will not keep them in.
