They're different wrasses so will likely be fine together. However, the tank is too small for the Chrysus long-term.
Should be ok if you have a sand bottom for him
Do you know of any other wrasse that’d be a good size for the tank and colorful. I feel like a lot of the smaller fish that my LFS has shown me haven’t been very colorful.
My blue streak is over 2 years now with me. He cleans everybody that wants a scale pedicure.
The cleaner wrasse has been living in the tank for probably close to two years now. It eats a lot of pellets everyday. What time line were you thinking for not living long in a small tank? Just curious so I know what to expect
Honestly not 100% sure. The store said that they don’t know the exact name because there’s so many different types of flasher wrasse. I’ll post a picture tomorrow when the lights are on. Thank you all for your help too!
It’s an incredibly active fish and grows to 6”. You did really well to get it to eat pellets but is too big and active for a small tank like that.
Mystery wrasse, six line, four line. Really most wrasse are too active for that size tank. A Pseudocheilinus species or the Pseudocheilinops are good. As are possum wrasse.
Flasher wrasse need a 3ft tank minimum to perform their natural behavior and flash. These are free swimming fish. For a tank that size you need fish that stick to small territories.
I agree with this however I think it depends on the tank set up with enough rocks for them to dart in and out of. My DT is only 65g and I had 5 wrasses in there with no issues but I attribute that to a lot of rockscape and caves to satisfy their natural pest hunting curiosity. Currently have 3 now along with 9 other fish.
What are the dimensions?
