yellow coris wrasse and long fin fairy wrasse are my favorite personality wrasses. Yellow coris wrasse can get large and need a lot of swimming area.

ALL WRASSES WILL JUMP not if but when.

Melanarus is a similar wrasse same features as a corris and same risk personality wise but not as bad as a flight risk for jumping. These wrasses also grow quite large my yellow corris was almost 6" when he jumped.

Eight lines are better than six lines but I don't recommend them either


Here's my suggestion

Leopard wrasse (blacks a good choice)

Flame wrasse (male+ 3 females)

Fairy wrasse (whip fins have awesome personality)


Either way get a top on it to be safe


Outside of wrasses I would suggest a Blenny , anthias , cardinals etc.

If you want a good hogfish do the peppermint I find them friendly and great personality and colors

Cheers buddy
