I have a waterbox peninsula mini 25gallon and recently i seem to have picked up a white planaria infestation ( not out of control but a bit unsightly)
So i was considering a six line wrasse, and as luck would have it my LFS has a little baby 6 line in stock.

However im a little unsure of my stocking, nutrients are well under control and have been low since the start and had to dose for nitrate and phosphate, now stable at 0.04 and 3-5.

Currently i have:
2 clowns that keep to their anemone.
1 royal gramma that keeps to his own little cave
1 tail spot blenny that roams the rockwork
1 goby guttata that only sticks his head out from under the rocks with this pistol shrimp friend but never goes anywhere.

i got the gramma last because i wanted an active fish but that failed, so as my final wet pet i thought a six line could solve my planaria problem and be an interesting swimmer in the tank.

Would this be ok for this tank or would it be overkill?

I had a 50 lagoon with a six line. I downsized to a pen25 and decided to give away the wrasse. After seeing how active the wrasse was i just could not trap it inside a small tank. I vote no on the wrasse, not to mention it would bully the other fish, maybe even try to kill them.
