Mandarin Dragonet - 6 Line Wrasse - Are these fish a good natural solution to a flat worm problem?

From what I've read, it isn't agood idea to put them together. The 6-line will probably out compete the mandarin for food.

I can't say for sure that a Madarin eats flat worms , but I never had a flat worm problem until my Mandarin died. :(

I added a wrasse a few days ago. I THINK I'm seeing less flat worms.......

Six line wrasses do help with flatworms. You do not have the proper sized tank for a mandarin; in any case, they do not help with flatworms. Six line wrasses, however, preclude having certain other fish as they are very aggressive.

I'd like to get a six line wrasse for these hateful flat worms.

I currently have a Regal Tang, Foxface, Hawkfish, Cleaner wrasse, Midas Blenny, 2 clows & a Copperbanded butterfly fish.

Would a six line be ok with this group?
