Lineatus wrasse in 40 breeder?!

Hi.. can i put a lineatus wrasse in a 40 breeder. Some websites lists them as 50 gallon minimum tank size. Not sure if 40 would be okay..
I also currently have mccosker flasher wrasse and lubbock fairy wrasse in my lps dominent tank.. would that be a compatibility problem?

I would not recommend it. Even in a 120 gallon tank when I had one I felt my tank was a little small for it.

Thanks! Do you think a female rhomboid wrasse would work?

I don't think any of the bigger fairy wrasses will be ok in a 40 gallon.

I have a Rhomboid, lineatus, labouts, orange shoulder, and a couple more in a 300 and they tend to get a little scrappy at times.

if you buy a female of any wrasse, it will change to a male over time. they all do
