I'd like some advice on compatibility of the following wrasses: I have a small red coris (3") and a juvenile dragon wrasse (about 4.5"), as well as a large Australian tusk (6.75"). I'd like to add a pinkface wrasse (Thalassoma quinquevittatum), and a lightning wrasse (Halichoeres cyanocephalus), as well as a quoyi parrot (technically a labrid as well). My tank is a 270 gallon FOWLR with a sandbed. All are different species so I am hopeful they'd coexist but definitely want to look before I leap. Would also like to know order of addition - I was thinking lightning next, then pinkface, and quoyi whenever I can find one. Thanks.
Wrasee compatibility?

The Thalasomma should definitely go last, and may still be aggressive. It doesnt really matter the order between the parrot and the lightning wrasse. Just be mindful that even a 270 will eventually feel a little cramped as these fish reach their full size.
