Hello! I have a 210, 6’ long with a 4-6” deep sand bed, space all around rock work with sand for them, etc, plumbed into a 60g sump/fuge.

currently have:
Goldlined rabbit
Two spot bristletooth tang
3 x springeri damsels
Royal gramma (helped a friend moving)
Midas Blenny
P. Fridmani (tiny little one at that)
2 clownfish (one is a blood orange, one is ‘reg’)

I have a QT tank that is really more of an observation tank. It’s roughly 25g. Royal Gramma is older, I honestly think it won’t live for more than 2-3 more years tops. Largest/fattest one I’ve ever seen! That being said, it’s the last add and seems to be most skittish (it’s been nearly a month since add)…I think it may end up preferring the smaller tank over time since it’s more quiet… anyways

I have two wrasses coming from Dr Reef, earmuff and a dusky wrasse. I would like to know if I can add a carpenters flasher wrasse to this group too? Would there be aggression issues? All 3 would go in together.

Appreciate any feedback!
 

i cant think

What species is the dusky wrasse? I’m assuming H. marginatus, if so then you should be just fine adding a carpenteri.
