Fish for frag tank

[rastareefs]

Hi, I'm in the process of converting my 65 gallon DT to an SPS grow out tank and plan to keep my six line wrasse in that tank for pest control. I'm also starting a build on a 60"X24"X12" frag tank and wanted to get some recommendation for fish to add, first thoughts are a yellow tang and another six line wrasse. Any recommendations?

I wouldn't recommend keeping two sixlines together they likely won't last.
Some other good ideas could be a blenny, some mollies and maybe a different type of wrasse introduced before the sixline

Target mandarins are nice. Mines eats flatworms.

I won't be keeping two sixlines together, there would be one in each of the two frag tanks. I'll look into a blenny and some mollies, thanks!

how established was your system before you added the mandarin? Also, how big is your system and did you seed it with copepods?

I had put the mandarin around 3 months after new tank set up. I somehow got a lot of pods in the tank.
