Leopard Wrasse Getting Butt Kicked
I'm kind of worried about a black leopard wrasse I just put in my tank. I did my research before I bought it and my sixline, yellow tang and lawnmower blenny are kicking his butt really bad. Could this just be a pecking order and be over soon or will they kill him? I wont be able to get him out of the tank with out removing all of my rock and I'm not about to do that either. The sixline has actually took chunks out of him. I hope they all calm down. I have never had quarrels like this before.

Mine i had bullied the wrasse all the time. you may have to take him out ........ lawn mower blennie is doing it to that is weird.....mine didnt but every tank is different.

I was so happy to finally get my six line out of my tank. I know there a great looking fish, but great rid of him. The rest of the fish will leave your black leopard wrasse alone in time.The black and six are not compatible.

My leopard wrasse was in first so he gets along with the six line.

Hope the leopard wrasse has reappeared.
 Just wanted to say that I successfully evacuated my sixline for the same reasons. Caught him with a bottle trap. 2L cut the "ribbing" off the top as that seems to scare them away from going in. Put a mirror in the back and add some bait and make sure the opening is very large. Yes they could get out eventually with the hole being larger but I found it increased the chances of them going in.I did catch every fish but him first at least once but patience won in the end! Just wouldn't want you to lose any fish over the sixline, mine was quite aggressive as well! Good Luck.
