well guys, i have a few questions about getting some wrasses for my 120 show... it is pedominantly a sps/lps tank.... i have a purps tang, a helfrich firefish, pair of green mandrin dragonnets, and a sunburst anthias..... i am getting a pair of snowflake clowns, and a bluespot jawfish.... i was thinking of getting a McCorskers and either a rhomboid, filimented, hawiian flame, or lineateus..... which do you think would go the best in my tank... is it possible to have these with my current fish? i love the wrasses, my favorite being an aussie tuskfish, but in a reef i dont dare, cuz i dont think i can watch him eat all of my shrimp..... anyways whatdo you guys think... i am going to be getting a few bags of pods and up my population of pods for the mandrins etc, but i am not too sure if my tank will handle 2 mandrins, and 2 wrasses....

any imput would be much appreciated...

If you want to keep the mandarins alive long-term then you need a refugium to keep the pod population up, even w/o the wrasses. Instead of getting two different species of flasher wrasses i would go for a pair of the smae species.

I didn't mean a mated pair of wrasses just a male and a female of the same species so that they "flash" their colors.

Liva Aquaria often has pairs of different flashers.
