How to keep a wrasse with a clean up crew?

Flasher/fairy wrasses are generally OK with CUC; all others are dicey.

How are flashers and fairies at eating worms, nudibranchs, and pests in general?

They are useless for pest control.

Are there certain wrasses who are good for pest control but dont eat inverts like snails (aside from the melanrus/coris - they eat cuc, and six line - aggressive)?

If its going to eat pests effectively it is a risk for cuc. Pink streak and wetmorella wrasses are safe w/cuc and will eat some pests, but aren't super effective.

Halichoeres chrysus is relatively safe w cuc and is very effective at pest control.

Its possible, but most yellow coris are pretty safe with inverts.
