Good morning! So @RiptideAquaculture , I started my 125 finally. So far my stocking list consists of a pair of clowns, a Melanurus Wrasse, and a Yellow Stripe Cleaner Goby. I went yesterday to grab a Yellow Coris Wrasse but he was gone. He was a tiny little tike so I'm not overly concerned with that but my 75 got hit with Monti Eating Nudis so I'd rather have some extra protection.

Should I talk my wife into a McCosker's Flasher Wrasse if it's still there?
so with the coris wrasse family there is something you might want to know. These wrasse hides in the sand bed and might go missing with no sign of them for awhile.so just give is at least 2 weeks and because they might just pop out of no where.
that being said im not sure your going to have an issue with cohabitation between those two wrasses ether.

My biggest concern was the Melanurus size - she's already almost 4" and the Coris was only about 1.5". My Melanurus sleeps in the sand as well but she's out every day. She likes to hang out with my Lawnmower Blenny (I forgot he's in there) and cruise the rock work. She's always busily picking at rocks so she's an active hunter!

well the melanurus wrasse can become slightly protective of the space but they are on the lower end of the aggressive scale. give it some time and see what happens.
