I have an arrow crab with 2 cleaner shrimps and 1 peppermint shrimp and they seem to be doing fine. I have 1 sixline wrasse as well. I heard they get aggressive as they grow bigger though. So maybe consider that before buying another one. I use to have a lot of bristle worms too so I added an arrow crab, sixline and lowered feeding and it seems to be under control now. If you have some big worms I would probably try to remove them. Make sure you wear gloves and use tweezers. They have stingers that will make you itch or numb your fingers.
