I am asking for someone with a love for wrasse. The person already has a melanurus and yellow wrasse in a 65g. Would you suggest any other wrasse to stick in this tank. I am not sure if the tank is 3' or 4' yet. All opinions are welcome. Personally I would say no more. Don't shoot the messenger ☺️
 
Alright update on the tank. There is a clown and a hawk fish also. The hawkfish is in the sump, because it killed 2 other wrasse.
 
I enjoy your YT channel! I widen get rid of the hawkfish, sounds very aggressive.
 
That's already too many wrasses in a 65 gallon in my opinion. I wouldn't add any more. I've seen 2 wrasses constantly fight in a 60 gallon. I've had success mixing several wrasses in bigger tanks such as a 180 and a 240 gallon tank. A smaller docile flasher or fairy wrasse such as a Lubbock's or Yellow Fin fairy may work but, I wouldn't risk it.
