will a mystery wrasse, radiant wrasse, and possum wrasse get along? i know 6 line wrasses are aggressive, wondering if these guys are ok together. thanks

 

[NYreefNoob]

should be but a mysteri can be agressive, radiants have been a achilles heal for me as that is one wrasse ive never been able to keep

We don't have a Possum but we have the other 2 in our 120 with about another 10 or so wrasses. can't imagine the Possum would be much of a problem. What size tank is it?

 

[wschang812]

the tank is a 70 gallon

 

[NYreefNoob]

you wont see a possum wrasse much as they are a secritive fish

 

[wschang812]

i might not get a possum wrasse if that is the case. any suggestions for wrasse types that can get along with the mystery and radiant wrasse? hawaiian flame wrasse? ornate wrasse?

We have a Vrolicks, Leopard, Lubboks, Filamented Flasher, McCosker's Flasher, Yellow Coris, Cleaner, Solar, Red Velevt Fairy....that may be it. Most of the Fairy Wrasses should be OK

Anyone have experience with a cryptic 6 line wrasse? They look interesting. Get along with mystery and radiant? Just want to get some opinions before I purchase.

You are giving the Mystery wrasse too much praise.. it's not much different in terms of behavior from a 6 line.. just with a more expensive price tag.

I guess it really all depends on the individual fish. I've had a mystery for months now and at least a dozen other wrasses including halichores and flashers and really have no issue with the mystery.

I like the fairy wrasses, nice color. Some one here posted an nice pic of blue and orange wrasse, forget name but was really sharp
