They go well with most fairy and flasher wrasses. On the middle of aggressiveness scale among the fairy wrasses.

My experience in the last few years with Jordanis is that they are quite model citizens, of course there are those few....had a terror of a lineatus wrasse. If kept with other planktonic species....i.e. anthias, chromis, etc., you can expect them to become feisty as they must compete for food and territory.

The females tend to be more aggressive than the males, especially as cwoods8 says to oter plantonic species.

thanks, theyd bein with a few fairy/flasher wrasse, 4 oscellaris, a randalls jawfish,a goby... I was going to add a few anthias, would itbe better to add them first? The tank is a 175g with plenty of hiding spaces and overhangs..

With the mix you are proposing, I don't see any aggression issues. Sometimes anthias may pose a problem but I have done it.

awesome, i was going to go with ignitious and randalli anthias, which are smaller ones
