Yes, lineopunctatus.

I’ll defer to these guys, but I’d expect they would both be ok in a 180. Your carpenters and McCosker are very similar also

 

[eatbreakfast]

Agreed as well that they will be fine.

What kind is this? I added a carpenter and had to remove him, mine kept it at the top corner of the tank.

Is it normal for it to HATE this one? I wanted to add more fairy wrasses, need to know which ones mine won't attack.

That's P. flavianlis, and both are males.
How large is the tank and how was it introduced?

Ugh, I just put him in with lights out for 2 days. My tank is 3' x 5' x 25 high about 233 gallons?
I thought mine was a female, never saw any high fins or flash to him assumed a girl.

Must be avoided, if you ever desire to keep any other wrasses.
