C. rubrisquamis

My LFS has C. rubrisquamis in. Theyre about 2.5 inches long. I bought 2. Later on, I phoned the shop and reserved the remaining 2. They all seem to have full coloration.
Can I keep 4 of these guys together in my tank?
My tank is 4 foot 4 inches long by 2 feet by 2 feet.

I've been looking through the net. There seems to be a difference of opinion on adult size. Some claim adult size as 3 inches. Others, including the fairy wrasse expert at the LFS (who had a large one in his tank before it jumped

) claim this is one of the larger fairys and grows to 5.5 inch.

Yeah, you could keep 4, but if they all have "full color" theyre probably all males, and thats no good.
