I was curious if wrasse can go together in the same tank? I have a 70 gallon cycling currently and am looking at fish for a stocking list.

i am interested in:
Orange back fairy wrasse
Sixline wrasse
Melanurus wrasse.

can these guys go together? Or is it better to have only one kind of wrasse in the tank?

The Fairy and Melanurus can go together, the sixline will likely kill both (and your other rock dwellers).
 
Here’s a chart that can help you make your wrasse decision.

Hello I came across someone selling these three wrasses together:

Carpenter Flasher Wrasse
Lubbock Wrasse
Pintail wrasse

I did a little research on all 3 types and found out they are all small wrasses. I was curious if these can go in my tank together? Tank is a red sea 69 gallon with lots of live rock. I currently have 2 baby clowns, a coral beauty, and a baby half black mimic tang.

All 3 of those wrasses are compatible. If you can add all 3 at the same time it’ll disperse any potential “attention” from the angel and tang.

In a 69 Gallon I wouldn’t do the flasher, what variant is the lubbocki? If it’s the Indonesian variant go for it but if it’s the Cebu variant I wouldn’t as this guy gets large and is active.
For both Flashers and the Cebu Variant of Lubbocki, I would only do them in a 4’ tank as they really do use the space.
In the photo below, you can see the Indo Lubbocki in the front and the Cebu lubbocki in the back.
