I just bought a beautiful hoaver's wrasse and was thinking of also adding a banana wrasse after a week (couldn't find one I liked to buy at same time). Will they get along since they both are similar or will this cause hell in my peaceful reef? It's a 93 g cube. Only a kole tang, two pajamas, two false percs, one peaceful orchid dotty and a pistol&goby.
 
By banana wrasse, you mean a Halichoeres chrysus (and not the Thassoma species), correct? If so, you should be fine there, but there is a small chance it might not work. Do be mindful however, that all halichoeres can have a taste for snails and/or hermits.
 
Thank you. My hoaver's wrasse won't touch my bristleworms wonder if the yellow corris will.
 
Bristleworms? Doubtful. Most wrasses are smart enough to avoid a mouthful of spines. ;)
