Six Line VS Fairy Wrasse

[paddyob]

Ugh.

So I ripped apart my tank to remove either the six line or the fairy wrasse.

I ended up catching the six line so he found a new place in my sump refugium for now. Well fuge in training.... no lights yet.... just some rock. I am pretty sure he will be fine.

NOW the question is.... do I try trade him for a small six line (as I love him) or say good bye to him forever as I cannot pt him back in with the fairy wrasse.

I also am stressed out that I cannot find two of my fish since rearranging the rocks.... I am really hoping they are hiding and not crushed under rocks.

Man what a shitty day in the reef.

Six line are well known to be aggressive with other wrasses, so once you put a 6 lines you can't put any other wrasse usualy.

That's why I stayed away from the 6 lines. If you want more wrasse, try the peacefull specie instead.

I bought a checkerboard and had a yellow in the tank. The checkerboard is supposed to be peacefull but was attacking the yellow. So I sold the yellow and once the yellow wrasse was gone he started to attack my little pajama cardinal!!! so you never knwo with fishes!

I got a yellow tang and he killed my male mandarin!!! nasty tang. who would attack a mandarin??!! Now I am left with the little female and had to sell the yellow tang for an aggressive tank.

Nothing is ever granted with fish.
