55g reef stock

[00pipirose]

So I have a 55 gallon reef tank and it's currently stocked with 2 clown fish, long nose hawk, algae blenny, 1 diamond sifter goby, 1 chromis, snails, coral and an anemone. I'd really like to stock with some fairy or flasher wrasse. Out of the list below what could I stock my tank with?

Lubbock wrasse
Blue star leapoard wrasse (I'd really love this one and believe I could take care of it properly)
Blue sided wrasse
Esquisite wrasse
Orange backed wrasse
Yellow fin wrasse
Long fin wrasse
Capenter flasher
(Or any recommended fairy wrasses that are reasonably priced)

You could go with a melanurus wrasse. They are reef safe very beneficial and gorgeous.

Oh wow he's gorgeous! How much did he cost? Could I only do one wrasse?

With this guy not advisable to add fairy wrasse. But he is peaceful with corals and fish. My lfs has it at 42.00

Darn, I'd really like multiple wrasses to fill up the tank, do you have any other suggestions?

Of the wrasses listed in the first post you could have any combination of them. Most do fine with other wrasses. Though the longfin can be a little pushy toward other fairy or flashers.
