Jeez guys you should know better by now than recommending without the basic info first! :p

Jeez Mindy......maybe you should read more better too:razz::wink::biggrin:

Three different (that can tolerate each other) and the more gaudy the better :lol:, life is too short for just vanilla.

Perhaps they already knew/remembered from other threads.

135g in the Dt and 50g sump

existing are:
sailfin tang, tomato clown (hosted in H.crispa), 2 cromis, red firefish and a pink spot goby.
2 skunk cleaners and a coral banded shrimp plus the usual assortment of snails and hermits.

A 6 foot tank doesn't say how big the tank is. That's only one dimension! :neutral:

A new wrasse wouldn't be too concerned about any of your current fish, but some of the more assertive wrasses should be avoided.

Most fairy wrasses co-exist nicely and aren't too hard on the wallet. A trio of Flame Wrasses would be awesome, but pricey. I have a trio of McCosker's in my 90 that are fun to watch. They are my favourite besides the Flame Wrasses.

You serious think I'm going to do a CanReef search to find out the basic info on someone's tank when they are the one asking the questions? What are you smokin? :p

oh, see.....when you said a group I assumed you meant like a harem.........ok, different wrasses is easy.......I had a trio of blackfin fairy wrasses with a lineatus fairy wrasse and a mystery wrasse and all seemed to get along just fine......if you go a similar route, add the fairy wrasses first and the mystery/4 line/6 line/8 line after the fairies and after any shrimp that you think you want......



Cmon Mindy......how many people have a 6 foot 50g tank???:razz:
