How about flasher wrasses instead of fairy wrasses? If you get a mff trio the male will have amazing colors and will flash to the females in the evenings.

Ya, I was looking at the Carpenters (that is a flasher isn't it?). I've never had a tank this big so I'm still not used to being able to have so many fish, lol. Can I have a MFF set of Carpenters, with an Exquisite and the rest of what I mentioned before?

Ya the Carpenter is a flasher. If you have the budget, go for a trio of Flame Wrasses - their show is amazing even though they are fairies. They get a bit bigger too. I think your combo is fine. I'd suggest you don't order the wrasses unseen - quality really varies.

Pardon the hijack, but what is the reasoning behind a trio? Does the male display better colours in a trio than a pair?

lol...
it's not even your tank and you can;t make up your mind...

you would be doubling up the motivation for your male to display...

Just checking with J&L on availability and they've only got male wrasses in at the moment. Everything I've read tells me to add the females first if I can't put them in at the same time.
Also they've only got female Anthias. Will a dominant female Anthias turn male?

Woohoo! Just got an email from J&L, they just got a MFF trio of Carpenters wrasses :)

The colors would be the same. But sometimes the male will pick on the female. if you have two or three females and one male it helps to spread out the aggression.
