I recommend against the six line and maroon, they get VERY aggressive, if you want the sì line for the pest eating ability I recommend the puddingwife wrasse (Halichoeres cosmetus) And the clown, if you dont want a basic occelaris or percula I recommend the Clarkii.

Nix the six line wrasse extreme but heads and can kill other fish. If your looking for pest control ornate wrasse or you corris wrasse.

Maroons get very big and the most excessive clown. A pair may dominate the entire tank.
One of the easiest to pair with bta.

Just my opinion

I already have the 6 lined with a gramma and bangaii and it’s the most timid so far I’m planning on doing the flame last to prevent aggression my bangaii is the boss of the tank so far would there be any problems?

Honestly, the only issue would be the six line. They are known to get aggressive and kill when they’re older so you may have to get rid of him further down the line. An established bangaii would get very territorial over other bangaiis in the tank unless they were in at the same time or before the big boss.

Watch the six line as it grows it can become nasty

I meant Adorned wrasse not Puddingwife sorry (Also, I realise this is a dead thread)
