Alright so I was given a sixline wrasse and I threw him in this 40 gallon reef, 38 gal display. He is the only fish in there right now and it just happen to be that there were no fish in that reef when he was given away. He was given away as the owner was tanking down a system that had fully crashed and was a smaller system so he figured he'd just build a new one. Anyway, I am now planning to add a pair of clownfish and an Anemone with him and maybe one other fish. Will I run into any problems with this? He has plenty of caves and hiding areas. He doesn't seem to be the aggressive type, unless it comes to food he tends to sometimes try and steal my RFAs Mysis Shrimp. I don't think he'll feel territorial but I'm not sure. I've heard Sixlines can be aggressive. If you have any suggestions on how I should go about adding fish and if it will be okay.
 
it's hit or miss. some are terrors others, like mine, are model citizens. it was the second fish I added and have added many since with no issues. you're just going to have to add them and find out. I'm pretty confident they'll be fine.

Thank you if it becomes a Problem I'll maybe Move him to a clear box like a time out for awhile until he learns to be nice

My philosophy, only add a risky fish if you can easily remove it. I spent three months trying to catch a damsel.
