    That is about $45 US I believe, which is about right for him. Nice pick up!

    I have only ever had one Flasher, so I can't comment on that. However I have added two terminal male Fairys at different times, and it can take them some time to get used to each other (mostly the established fish to the new one). It took a solid week before my established Hooded (C. bathyphylus) would leave my new C. laboutei alone. But after that week, they have no issues at all. Best thing to do is use some kind of acrylic box to use inside your tank. Keep the new fish in there until the established wrasse(s) no longer go after it. Hunter put some good info on this in his thread.

    I've had a look at his thread a few times now, it's very good. How many more fish do you think I can add to my current stock? Plus any sticking ideas

    I would say your original plan of 8-9 total fish is the max you should be at.
