Hi everyone. My wife and I went to the LFS and saw a beautiful common cleaner wrasse and we bought it, we came home, did our homework and found out this is a hard to keep well fish. We put him in our 180 gal with 2 columbian sharks amongst other fish but after a couple weeks, the columbian sharks were so scared of the wrasse and they had been hurt by it, so we removed the wrasse and put him in our 55 gal in which we have a yellow tang. The yellow tang is going to the other tank and I am just wondering what kind of fish can i put with the cleaner wrasse so tht he can clean them and not hurt them?

Any ideas will be highly appreciated.

Thanks everyone

Is the tank FOWLR or reef? Dwarf angels would be a good addition. Is the cleaner wrasse eating prepared foods?
 
It is FOWLR and yes he eats frozen mysis shrimp, chopped shrimp, blood worms, beef heart, and even spirulina and seaweed.
