Default Melanurus wrasse help

Wouldn't mind some opinions on what to do.

I've had a melanurus wrasse for quite some time now. He really kept up to his reputation of being a peacefull fish and was the gentle king in my 90 gallon. I recently added a yellow tang and a orange back Fairy wrasse and it seemed everything went according to plan. I had no issues for the first day or so. The two wrasses seemed to tolerate each other no problem. Then the orange back must have said something to the melanurus wrasse and things got nasty and it chases the poor guy all over.

I am trying to the pop bottle trap method tomorrow to try and get the melanurus out. My questions to you guys is whether you think it would work to put the melanurus in the quarantine for a couple of weeks and try and put him back in later or if he would be better to go up for adoption on canreef?

Thanks in advance for any advice!
