Mystery Wrasse question

Hi guys,

I have a healthy 3" Mystery Wrasse in my 82g. I want to add another wrasse because they're colorful fish. What other wrasse will do fine with the Mystery?
 
I had good luck with fairy wrasses. Just be careful, mystery can get mean. You might want to add a mesh top if you don't have one already.
 
It is better to add 2 or 3 wrasses at the same time if you have an established Mystery. If you just add 1 then aggression is very likely.
 
For some reason mine hates orange or red color wrasses. He knocked out a flame, rosy, and a hooded. Wonderful fish but at this point I would rather trade back for those 3 lost fish and some cleaner shrimps.
One aggressive wrasse and its all mine now. They do great w/ Lineatus, yellow corris, and x-mas, but a little tension now and then w/ exquisite and rhomboid.
