Scotts Fairy Wrasse

[Fanreef]

Hi,

I have an 80 Gallon tank, I have a scotts fairy and 3 leopards, the scott is keeping territory on half tank and doesn't let the leopards go in there only in the corner, i added an exquisite, and the scott went mad. I trapped the scott in a section of the tank with egg crate, but every time the exquisite comes close he is starting to show off.

So it looks they are not compatible, the question is do I remove the scott or the exquisite?
I like the scott more, but if he'll make issues with each addition then i can't keep him.

Thank you very much

I haven’t kept a Scotts but they are one of the more aggressive wrasses and imo will give you trouble with new additions. Their colors also tend to fade in captivity. @Slocke @i cant think

Remove the scottorum, they need large tanks to be happy, and I mean large tanks - I’ve had them in an LFS environment in a 4 foot tank and they caused hell, I then had one in the 8 foot coral tray and it was the most placid fish in there.

Thank you.

I also wanna add 2 of these 3 wrasses, Timor, Dusky and Melanurus.
Will it work and the peace will stay?
What 2 of these will you suggest for the best chances of success?
