Help with a flasher and a fairy

[Madoktopus]

Hi, i have a blueline flasher (c.carpenteri?) and i keep it with amongst other things a pink amrgin fairy wrasse. the blueline chases the margin whenver the margin feels brave enough to come out of hiding. is this normal of flashers and should i remove which one?

The flasher and fairy wrasses are close related and so there are a lot of possibilities that they will fight.

If you have them both in a small, i think that taking one of them will help.

P. cyaneus is the Blue Flasher Wrasse where as Carpenters is P. carpenteri. Fairies and flashers normally get along fine in fact multiple species of either get along fine. In fairies, you cannot introduce two males that are similar in appearance such as C. rubrimarginatus and C. lineatus. Both jump!!!
