Sunburst Anthias and Royal Flasher Wrasse compatability

I have a Sunburst Anthias that I've been keeping for over a year who eats like a champ. I want to add another fish and like the idea of the smaller Royal Flasher Wrasse but I don't want him to bully my Sunburst. Anyone have a Royal Flasher that can comment? My tank is rather small at 30 gallons (I know I'm kind of pushing it).
 
The problem will be the other way around; the sunburst will bully the flasher once the anthias get large.

(it's going to outgrow a 30)

Thanks for the reply. I know he's tight in there. Thankfully I haven't seen a ton of aggression from him but if it goes that way off to a bigger home he goes.
 
I have never witnessed aggression from a sunburst anthias, they will both coexist fine, though 30 is a little small for a flasher.
 
I've had an aggressive sunburst in a 40g but the other fish were a watchman goby, and a perchlet. He ignored the cardinal which was larger than he was. No experience with sunburst and wrasses.
