My one and only Green Wrasse (Halichoeres chloropterus)

I want more wrasses. What is compatible with the one?
Yours will pack some attitude the older it gets so I would stick with more assertive wrasses. A melanurus or a checkerboard wrasse (halichoeres hortulanus) could work with it.
 
My vote is checkerboard. One wrasse I would have like to have but stayed away do to size and feeling feisty

Thanks for the input.
Could I add both or just stick to one of them?

Would a 6 line be an option? I’ve always liked their colors.

I got the green wrasse to help with the infestation of vermetid snails , which he did a good job cleaning up. I wanted the yellow coris wrasse but this was all that was available at the time.
 
I don't take pics as often as I should LOL This is the only pic of her on my computer. I'll break out the camera this weekend (she's sooo fast) and get some updated pics ;Snaphappy

Sixline es can be little devils or be perfectly fine. Honestly if it were me I’d skip the hortulanus and get a red coris, Coris gaimard and rather than a melanarus I’d get a dusky, Halichoeres marginatus. Much prettier and from what I’ve seen both are less aggressive though that’s possibly an individual thing. You may also do a dragon wrasse but they can be destructive and possibly aggressive.

You could add both the checkerboard and melanurus. In fact if you can add them at the same time it works out better because the established wrasse can't single out the new guy. Adding multiples disperses any initial aggression while they work out their pecking order.

You have a large tank so a six line could work if you stick with larger more assertive wrasses, but sometimes even in large tanks six lines can be little terrors towards their tank mates once they reach maturity but this could be 2+ years down the road. They're also very hard to catch so something to keep in mind.

I like Slocke's suggestion of the dusky (halichoeres marginatus) it could work too.
