Wrasse mixing!

[Andre.nicolau]

Hello guys! I wanted to add a cirrhilabrus wrasse to my 68g reef! I've already reserved a exquisitus africanus at my LFS because it was at a very good price and I love this fish! But I want to add one more and think it is better to introduce them together. I am thinking about the C. pylei and the C. filamentosus (whip fin). What is your opinion on this fish and do you have any other suggestion? The rest of my fish list is: 1 flasher blue wrasse, 1 pseudocromys bali, 1 yellow tang (still small) and a neon goby yellow.

Thank you!!

Pylei and filamentosus are both on the aggressive side for Cirrhilabrus, especially in a 68g tank, better choices would include members of the lunatus complex or a rhomboidalis.

But +1 to this.
