I'm tempted to try and track down 4 female lineatus wrasses and let one change in to a male to try and avoid aggression from the start.

McCosker's would be a great choice, they are quite peaceful. With wrasses you can use one super male, one sub-dominanant male and then however many females you want. The sub-dominant male will keep the super male in his brightest colors. I find super males and single males will flash at other fish if they don't have any of their specie in the tank.

Make sure you cover every square inch of your tank!
