Hello, I want to know what are some peaceful wrasses, that also won't eat something like sexy shrimp or small featherdusters ( if they even exist lol) For now I'm thinking of a cleaner wrasse, as they are quite small...

My carpenter flasher wrasse (Paracheilinus carpenteri) doesn't mess with my shrimp and is very peaceful. From what I've read, you really only want cleaner wrasse in a large tank with tons of fish because they survive off the slime coat and cleaning of other fish. In a small tank they will just waste away
