fairy wrasses and tangs

[cutnup]

I have 3 tangs an achilles, yellow, and scopas. When I added the "yellow sided" fairy wrasse they kinda of whoop his but for like 2 seconds and haven;t seen him since. Are fairy wrasses usually not good with tangs?

You should really research livestock before buying..... What type of Wrasse? Got a pic? Latin name?

what size tank?
tangs should usually be added last and need large tanks.
especially achilles, from what i hear/read.

My tangs don't pay any attention to any of my wrasses, never witnessed aggression of any kind.

I wouldn't worry too much at this point. Fairy wrasses are notoriouse for hiding the first 3-5 days, especially if added without any acclimation/seperation container.
He should come out soon, your tangs were just letting him know whos boss.
