Wrasse additions

[enduserferg]

I'm run a 125 and house a six line wrasse, I've wanted to get another wrasse that would hopefully pick at the larger bristle worms i have but have ready the six line can be very aggressive and kill other wrasse additions. Are there any other wrasses that would be okay to put in a 125 or am i just asking for trouble?

Or any other suggestions for a reef safe large bristle worm eater?

thanks in advance!

Following as I am very curious about this too. I'll be moving from a 29gal to a 125 long later this year, and was thinking about adding another wrasse (or more), depending on potential compatibility problems. I also have a 6-line.

My six line was the first wrasse i put in my 150g tank.. then i introduced a red margin, mystery, lineatus, hawaiian flame and a rhomboid. He didnt mess with any of them but when i introduced a mckoskers (twice!) he killed it.. He also killed one of my picassos and a pylei wrasse.. that fish cost me hundreds of dollars.. I tried catching him countless times with no success.. Im planning to empty out 80% of my water to try to catch him.

although there are some succes stories, as the six line matures, usually, things get worse. get rid of him.
