Six line wrasse pairs???

[AreUaBadFish2]

Can you keep more then one six line wrasse together without them fighting??? I know some wrasses are touchy with company of the same species.

IMO... 1 six line is WAY too many!... They are a PITA fish.

yes you can, but would suggest the 2 smallest one's you can find and add at the same time, but do know if you put one in you wont be able to keep any other wrasse's

Pita fish??? I dont understand. And i figured about havin other kinds. I kinda didnt want to any way due to most eat inverts n such. Maybe a malenarius ... Hmm something to kick around. I wanted a six line mainly for my bristle worm population which is redic atm.

Eh I've had a different experience. Added my 6 line after I added a yellow corris, and red fin fairy wrasse. No problems. Added a lubbocks fairy wrasse 2 weeks later. No issues. As always, it depends on the fish.

lol i will stick with not chancing it, ive tried a few times with same results and have had 30+ types of fairy/flasher wrasse's as well as coris and leopard wrasse's, dont judge a 6line by it's size

This is one fish i will not push my luck with again lost a mystery and a pair of carpenter flashers to it and six line was the smallest
