    In my 75 I have a 3" yellow coris wrasse. I want to add a Scott's Fairy and/or maybe a different medium sized peaceful wrasse. From what I have read this would work as they are all peaceful. Am I good on this? My other fish are 2 bar gobies and a royal gramma. thnks

    Anyone tried the specific combinations mentioned above?

    I had a banana wrasse and 6 line in same 5ft tank with no issues - ignored each other basically , but never tried the mix you mention above

    I have a sixline and a flasher wrasse, very similar to a fair wrasse, and don't have any real major problems. I have heard some people's sixline is pretty nasty, but mine for the most part is pretty good. They get along fairly well, there is the occasional chase, but no fin nipping or anything, and the chasing is becoming more rare. I think you should be ok with a coris and fairy
