Default Leopard Wrasse with a 6Line?

Wondering if the 2 would get along together?

Had the 6Line for years so it's well established.

would probably depend on how big the leopard wrasse is and whether or not your sixline is a turd or not.......leopards are not aggressive at all (for the most part).....I added a melenarus and a leopard to a well established and larger mystery wrasse and didnt have any issues.....my mystery wrasse is fairly laid back tho so???????.......

My six line killed my cleaner wrasse so I wouldn't trust it. Especially since the six line is already established.

I have a six line that attacked a mystery wrasse I put in, luckily I was able to get the mystery out.

I've been meaning to get a leopard wrasse too, but knowing how aggressive my six line is, I've been holding off.

I googled this combo too, and the general consensus is that the six line will be too aggressive for a leopard.

read before about 6Lines being the a$$holes of the tank but mine is about the most mellow fish in the display. It's just slowly cruises through the LR and bends it's body to drift in the flow.

Torn here now with the cautions against the Leopard really caught the wife's eye in the LFS.
