hey everyone! I am considering getting an orange back wrasse for my 65 gallon tall tank (footprint 3' by 18" by 2' height). I just purchased a Rhomboidalis wrasse, which is the same size, so im thinking it would do fine, but I wanted to ask everyone's opinion first.

So sorry to bother you again, but @evolved , any thoughts on this? Your help is always appreciated!
 
It's on the small side but should be ok.
 
One of the things that is amazing about the Orange backs is that although they don't get very long they get very fat. I saw a full grown one at my LFS and couldn't believe how wide it was. The point is that they definitely need space given how active they are.
 
thanks for the replies. I definitely want it to be healthy and happy so I am reconsidering
