McCullochi Dotyback and Six Line Wrasse

Anyone have experience with them together? I probably should have asked a little sooner, like before I mixed the two. I know they are both agressive species, and they are certainly showing it. The Six Line has only been in the tank for half an hour and they've been at an almost constant stand off the whole time. They were both great looking specimens, until now. Both have nipped fins after this power struggle. Think they'll settle down? Thanks

 

Hah, I see why the dottyback must be particularly pissed off, I added a Six Line and a Midas Blenny, and the blenny has taken over the den the dottyback dug out for himself. Geez, what a mess I've created.

 

Is this in your 28 gallon tank? This is going to be an epic battle...lol...

 

Haha, yea in the 28. I was optimistic the two agressive fish could get along well enough.

 

ehh well they are both aggressive. Take it from me; if 2 fish are aggressive, and they may be really colorful or very nice looking, don't get them. Maybe one would be fine, but no matter how tempting they both may seem, don't get them. it'll just cause fights and possibly death
