6 LINE wrasse and coris yellow wrasse

[JARRETT SHARK]

could i put them together in a 210gal?
I have a 6 line that is about 1.5'' and the yellow wrasse is 2.5''
the 6 line has been in the 210gal since I started it in Nov and i just got the yellow wrasse and he is in QT so not sure if tank is big enough that they will not fight each other? I heard you can't mix all wrasses but want to make sure before I go crazy trying to catch him once he is in my DT

also have a 1'' cleaner wrasse in the 210gal and no problems with him.

Could be possible. But the six line is a real bully. If he/she/it is the first in the tank, it might not be a good idea.

honestly... i currently have a six line wrasse and a yellow coris wrasse in my bio-cube right now...never did i think they would have an issue. i had the yellow coris for about 4 months, then i got the six line wrasse. never did it care the other was in the tank. you should be fine.

There is a good chance the 6-line will probably chase the Yellow wrasse, especially since its been in the tank for quite a while.

since the coris is bigger u might be ok, otherwise, yeah they will fight. i had a 4 line almost kill a green coris had to get rid of the 4 line

As Marrone said the six line will probably chase the Yellow cori but 210G its a big home for both fish, i think u should be ok IMO

since the coris is bigger u might be ok

I wish ... lol ... I used to have a Six Line in my 90G before I upgraded to my 120 ... the fish was a nasty one ... didn't matter what size wrasse I put in ... I bought a nice full size male Rosy Scale Fairy Wrasse (which I still have) from Jim (House of Laughter) ... the Sixline was RELENTLESS. Thank goodness the little guy was a sucker for food and was able to throw some into a net and scoop him out.

might be able to get away with it, if u have a lot of rock work and it is a big tank, they dont look like each other but i had a problem with a 6 line and a christmas wrasse so you never really know. 6 lines are agressive so ur call

 

[duke62]

if you want a comparison on how he would react to another wrasse put a mirror next to the tank and see how aggressive it is towards its own reflection.and if you do put the other wrasse in fix the mirror onto the tank for a couple of days.

 

[ryangrieder]

call me crazy but i have never seen an aggressive six line wrasse. i have had 4 now. if anything it was a wimp

 

[duke62]

mine as well.but people say they r aggressive

 

[JARRETT SHARK]

yeah my 6 line is scared of me when i even have food? I kep you guys posted if its a fight to death

 

[ryangrieder]

SWEET im not crazy! haha
