Looking to add a Wrasse trio.

In order of preference: Mystery, Melanurus, Exquisite, Clown Fairy, Four Line Wrasse.

Anyone seen any of these trio'd? Exspecially the Mystery wrasse.
 
I have the following wrasses in my tank - Flame wrasse pair, Trio Red Tail Tamerins, Pair of Lineatus, Rhomboid, Pair of Labouti, Scotts, Mystery, solarenis Solarensis, Rubrisquamis, Cleaner. I would be careful of the four line as I have had issues with aggression in the past. Mystery, exquisite and clown should be fine in that size tank. Just have plenty of rock work. Years ago I had a mystery that ate my cleaner shrimp. My current mystery has been in the tank for 18 months and a model citizen, but he was medium size when I received. Should be fine but watch for aggression. when I add a new wasse, I have him in a critter keeper in the tank so the other fish get used to the fish (seems to minimize aggession).

My experience
 
Cheers, but I'm looking to trio 3 of a kind. So 3 Mystery Wrasses or 3 Melanarus etc.
 
Still on the search for a trio of Mystery, Melanurus, Exquisite, Clown Fairy, Four Line Wrasses.
 
how do u guys keep your mystery wrasse w/ other wrasses? my mystery wrasse is a bully and kills all my other wrasses.
 
My mystery was about 1/2 grown when I got him and he has not been aggressive at all. I have sixline and McCosker in with him in a 120 gal tank with about 15 other tankmates. All get along fine.

I would suggest trying to find a smaller mystery wrasse and let it grow.
