wrasse capability

SALT WATER CRAZ

New member
Ok I am looking for advice on adding some wrasses to my 300 gallon. I just pulled my mystery wrasse, and am thinking abought adding these 6 wrasses all at one time. What do you think does this sound like a good idea or not? I will readd the Mystery in a couple of weeks.

Hears the list I am thinking of adding, I think the Mcoskeri and Filamentosus might be a problem?

McCosker's Flasher Wrasse (Paracheilinus mccoskeri)
Exquisite Farywrasse (Cirrhilabrus ct. exquisitus)
Filament Flasherwrasse (Paracheilinus filamentosus)
Solorensis Fairywrasse (Cirrhilabrus solorensis)
Orange&purple Fairywrasse (Cirrhilabrus aurantidorsalis)
Golden Coris Wrasse (Halichoeres chrysus)



Fish list already in the system right now..

Pair Black/White Ocellaris Clown (Amphiprion ocellaris)
Redfinned Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus rubripinnis)
Pair Banggai Cardinals (Oterapogen kauderni)
Royal Gramma (Gramma Loreto)
Pair Blue Mandarin Dragonets (Synchiropus splendidus)
2 Blue/Green Chromis (Chromis viridis)
Sailfin/Algae Blenny (Salarias fasciatus)
Purple Firefish (Nemateleotris decora)
blue linkia Starfish (Linckia laevigata)
Sand Sifting Starfish (Astropecten polycanthus)
2 Fire shrimp (Lysmata Debelius)

Thanks for your input in advance.

Filamentosus in my experience are very aggressive fairy wrasses and so are Exquisites so you might want to add them last.
 
I think you would be fine adding them all at once if your system can handle that much all at once.
 
I am sweeting the mystery, He has been in the tank before but I traped him last night. he is in a 100 gallon sump. How long should I wait to put him in after I add all the other wrasses?
 
I have a McCosker, solar, mystery, exquisite and a blue sided fairy wrasse in my 135 that were added in that order and have not had any problems at all. They all swim together and get along fine.

Thanks that makes me feal better. I added the red fin than the mystery, I tryed adding a flasher and the mystery harassed him to death :mad2: so thats why I pulled him, so I can try to add these wrasses. :p than put him back in.
