Looking for peaceful yet colorful fish to add to my already established 57 rimless and I'm drawing a blank and would like some ideas to spice up the colors in my tank.

All suggestions will be appreciated and considered , thank you all in advance for your input.

I have a melanurus wrasse, he is a gorgeous fish, except it has a taste for snails and hermits!

That's the problem I had with my last mystery wrasse......... I had one that was passive and he died in transition to my new tank , so I got a second one and he hunted down my cleanup crew and one day he disappeared and as I expected he had jumped and was dried up behind my tank.

How many wrasses can I have in a 57 peacefully

If you do different species probably 2/3, just make sure they're of different kinds.

In my 180 I have the melanurus, an orange back fairy, and a yellow flanked fairy wrasse, they all get along well enough except the melanurus is a pig.

I might end up selling my melanurus since I would like to maintain a CUC and his terroistic ways aren't welcomed.

For a 57g I'd check out an exquisite fairy wrasse & maybe the orange back they're both awesome fish and colorful/peaceful.
