Hi,
Will be moving the following wrasses to my DT in a few days and was wondering if the added number of wrasses coming in at the same would allow not using an introduction box for 2-3 days:
2 Bipartitus wrass
1 Melanurus wrass
1 Anampses meleagrides
1 Flasher wrass

Tank is 400G with current fish list:
Solorensis wrass
flasher wrass (Lineopunctatus)
Ornate leopard wrass
2 Yellow cories wrass
Lubocks wrass
Hyppo tang
2 yellow tangs
Purple Tang
3 Lyretail anthias
Fridmani
Gramma Loretto
5 Appogon Leptacanthus
Middas Blenny
Rainford Gobby
4 Purple firefish
2 Firefish

Also have 5 anthias in Quarantine which should be rady to move in in a couple of weeks, Should I delay the introduction of the wrasses and introduce all fish all together?
Thanks
 
All together in groups is how I tend to do it. My tank takes high notice of anyone new, the more new added at once the lower the chance any one is going to be singled out.
 
I'd still use an acclimation box. Just because they're all going in at once doesn't mean one of your existing wrasses might not single out one of the particular new additions.

Adding them together helps, but doesn't eliminate potential aggression.
