Naoko Fairy Cirrhilabrus naokoae
Harlequin tusk Choerodon fasciatus
Melanurus Halichoeres melanurus
Alfian's flasher Paracheilinus alfiani
Yellow tail tamarin Anampses meleagrides
Diamond Tail flasher Paracheilinus attenuatus
Blue Spotted wrasse Anampses Caeruleopunctatus
China wrasse (black-backed) Anampses neoguinaicus

The tusk will likely bully the other inhabitants.

P. alfiani is unavailable to thehobby so far.

The Anampses will eventually outgrow that tank.

What are some others that would get along with the Tusk that you would recommend?

Larger, more aggressive species, such as the genera, Thalassoma, Coris, Bodianus, and Cheilinus. The problem is that these are a little large for a 4' tank.

Thanks for the help. I may just cross the Tusk off my list that way I can get the fairy's and flashers.

If I did that would Anampses twistii be okay to add to the list? I wasn't sure if keeping multiple Anampses is okay?

Keeping multiple Anampses is fine, just some get pretty big. A. twistii is a good choice.

Awesome, thanks again for your help. I'm make sure and check sizes and plan accordingly.
