Trying to add a Pintail fairy wrasse into a 120. Have an established Tahitian Yellow Hawkfish that is ramming against the fish acclimation box I have set up. It's odd because I have 2 other Wrasses that he doesn't bother at all. A Mystery wrasse and a Yellow banded possum wrasse. Any suggestions would be awesome. I've had the Pintail in the acclimation box for 12 hours now. Aggression was pretty immediate when I put him in the acclimation box. Hopefully after a week in the acclimation box the Hawkfish will stop being aggressive. Not sure if you guys know any other tricks that can help?

Hi, i cant speak on the wrasse/hawk specifically with that type, but wrasses in general are fine with hawks. I have a gold and red hawk along with multiple wrasses and there's never been any aggression, only a little bit when i added the gold, but it was between him and the red flame, no others...
