Multiple wrasses in a 40 breeder

[Amstar]

Can you do three flasher wrasses (different paracheilinus males) in a 40 gallon breeder

would go with a striped blenny, clown, a diamond goby, and cardinal fish. Maybe a shrimp or two later

I've found a 40B to be too small for even one flasher wrasse.

hmmm then if an issue for one there is no way for 3 -- thanks

You should get some more feedback later on, I've just found flasher wrasses needing more length, and not only got aggressive when more mature, but also frustrated in a shorter tank. I know you are shooting for a trio, I'm not sure but maybe someone else can chime in, maybe look into the coris wrasse.

agree - was thinking that a trio would get them flashing more and them keeping their color better

lol Oops...sorry. So you currently don't have anything in the tank. Correct?

 

[Amstar]

Correct - a few cuc and a couple small acropora sps is all That is in there

While flashers wouldn’t be recommended for a 40 you could do a pink streaked and one of the pygmy wrasses. Just a thought
