Question for the wrasse experts
My tank has FINALLY cycled and went I went to the fish store today (for the fifth time) and my water was ready to add some fish. (I have a 40 gallon AOI, so probably 36 in the display and the rest in back filtration.)
I knew I wanted a pair of clowns but wanted to add a couple other fish to start. From what was in stock, the guy at the store said I could get an algae blenny to help clean (which I did even though I think he is quite ugly) and a blue-lined wrasse. I asked about the temperment of the wrasse because I had read that some are more aggressive than others. He said that this type was on the easier side and would be fine.
Now that I am sitting down reading more about these fish, is my tank too small for my wrasse and is he going to be a problem? (Live Aquaria says 55 gallon minimum).
Thanks for you advice to the newbie!
