    I love the colors of some of the wrasse I see, so I am wondering what other fish would be a good match. I want to get 2 or 3 wrasse and a few more fish that would be as colorful as can be. Tank is not a reef tank so that is not an issue. 75g. Any help would be awesome!

    I have a mcclosker wrasse and he seems to get along with: chroimis, engineering goby, coral beauty angel, and all of my inverts.
    Hes doesnt get along with my royal gramma and he ate killed my clown.(im thinking bc of the color)...

    Hope that helped.

    Wrasses can be tricky. Any lined wrasse will not live happily with any other wrasse. If you want multiple wrasses you pretty much have to go with flashers or fairies.

    well, in this hobby, you'll find 10 people who will have one type of experience with mixing a specific fish and 10 others who will tell you a different story about the same fish. It really depends on the individual fish' personality.
