I'm not too sure. If the fish is small he might do OK in that 14g for a little while but as he gets a little bigger he may grow restless. Wrasses are very active swimmers, they never really stop to take a break. They're almost like a hornet buzzing around the tank.

Anyone have any experience here?
Would the 6 line bug the goby?

I had my 6L in a 30g with my bi-colour blenny (bi-colour was there 1st) and they got along great. When we sold the 30g we moved them into my 230g (mostly tangs and angels in this tank) and my 6L hid for awhile. Now he is comfortable enough to swim around (doesn't bother anyone) and he actually swims around with my bi-colour a lot, I guess you could say they're best buds

Can anyone comment on the compatibility of 6-lines with Cleaner Shrimp? I have two large cleaner shrimp that I don't want to lose if I add a 6-line.
