Hoping for advice on what fish I could put with a Naoko's wrasse!

Hi, my name is Stacy and recently downgraded from a 125 to a 65 gallon reef tank. Was going to get completely out of the hobby, but just couldn't stand the thought of giving it up! Now, for the question. I recently purchased a Naoko's wrasse and was going to put other wrasse in with it but got to reading about the aggressiveness of it's nature. Is this only towards other Cirrhilabrus wrasse or all wrasses. Wanted to put a couple of flasher wrasses (a carpenter and McCoskers). If no other wrasse can be added in this tank (65 gallon) any suggestions on other fish (what about a orange tail damsel)? I only have the Naoko's and a Maroon striped clown (who is completely occupied with his anemones). Any suggestions would be helpful and appreciated! Thanks!

I would recommend against fairy and flasher wrasses with a naokoae.

Perhaps a small Halichoeres, such as chrysus or biocellatus.

The orange tail damsel can be a little aggressive. Less aggressive damsels include the kupang, talbot's, springeri, and rolland's.
Other suggestions include a fang blenny, a trio of zebra or scissortail dartfish, or a gramma.
