    Hey guys I just noticed that Live Aquaria has Mystery Wrasse on sale. Do you know if a six line and a Mystery Wrasse would co-exist in a 120?

    Yeah the $85 is what I saw.. It's not a WYSIWYG but it's still a pretty cool fish a a decent price. Just not sure if it will get along with my six line? Any more opinions on this? I know you can never tell for sure, but it is one of those that you should just never try?

    I think it would be find if introduced at the same time. My eight-line was cool with the coris wrasse, but I added them same day. Now, he attacks new additions. So beware the eight-line. Little monsters they are......

    Thanks yeah before one went carpet surfing I had two six lines in the tank and they were ok together. I think I'll give it a whirl. I'm sure at first them might duke it out for position but hopefully after that they will be ok.

    So I got the mystery wrasse today.. Actually found one at my LFS for $79 on sales.. I driped him for about 3 hours before putting him in my 120 and have not seen him for about an hour. Is this normal for this fish to go in to hinding?
