We have one with a cleaner and fire shrimp and its been fine. Shrimp were in there first so I'm not sure if that makes a difference or not.

I want to get some new fish, maybe this wrasse, some gobies, and a few others. Also want to get some peppermints. So maybe I should get the peppermints first.

Also, with the melanurus wrasse, do they need fine sand to sleep in? My sand is more coarse, not the sugar sand stuff.
