Flasher wrasse question

[Vince272992]

hi im looking to get a capenders or mccoskers flaher wrasse or a longfin fariy wrasse in the next week or so and i was wondering if they would eat any thing that would be in a reef tank such as inverts, cleaner crew members, fish...etc
ive heard that they may eat stuff such as inverts but will those specific wrasses do that??? please help and also tell me which one you would recommend for me!!
THANKS

Flasher wrasses won't touch anything like that. Halichoeres species are probably what you are thinking of, where some will go after CUC type animals.

and even my Halichoeres does not go after the CUC

I agree. No issues.

Neither my McCorskers or longfin fairy wrasse touch CUC, inverts, or other fish.

my carpenter's flasher does not bother anything just eats pellets like a pig the only thing he does is grab food as i'm trying to feed it to corals
