6 wrasse in one tank

[ScarBosh]

How many wrasse do you guys have in one tank?
I have 6 total now with no problems. Just wondering people's experiences with wrasse. This is the first for me and I'm addicted.
Flasher wrasse
Mystery
Lunar
Twin spot
And a pair of yellow wrasse

I had 8 at one time. Some aggression but for the most part everyone lived together nicely. One jumped into the overflow and croaked, another I traded so now I have 6.

The most I ever had was 3 I think. So long as they all get along, the more the merrier The Yellow Coris Wrasse were my faves.

2 wrasses... in a 29 cube.. Asixline and a Mystery wrasse.. use to get along just great and always swan together untill it got closer to night and then they would go there own ways and find there spot to sleep for the night.

Okay. This is my first thread to write in here.

I have 2 - yellow coris, 1- sixline, and had 2 cleaner(jumpers), had 1 red flasher (which also jumped), and just recently had 1 solar fairy wrasse before being murdered by the SIXLINE WRASSE.

I am starting to hate the sixline for their aggression however, he should have been last to be introduced.

Good luck with stocking your display with wrasse.

i thought 6line wrasse where reef save

 

[BeanMachine]

They are they are just mean as hell. Reef safe generally means safe with invertebrates and corals, but not interactions and behaviors between the fish. That's more a compatability issue.

i thought 6line wrasse where reef save

In a sense, because they dont usually kill coral or clean up crew, but they are usually very aggressive towards other fish

Wrasse Whisperer...


I can't keep more than 1 at a time. I had a Carpenter Flasher. It died after adding a Black Leopard. About a week ago I added a melanurus. Now the black leopard has been missing for a week...
I love wrasses so much but apparently I suck at keeping multiple...
