most peaceful fairy wrasse?
Hey all-
Starting re-stocking my established 60g mixed reef. It is going to have all peaceful fish, gobies,cardinals,dartfish, blennie and mandy. Is there any fairy wrasse that won't terrorize these? Not worth getting one if its going to make all the others hide. Another option is a pygmy wrasse, they are just so hard to get... Thanks!

Really, just about any Cirrhilabrus would fit that bill.

Live aquaria has some listed as semi-aggressive, even lubbocks.
I know they don't know everything but that threw me off

I have a pair of them. Very colorful active and easy fish. They are also one of the lesser expensive wrasses but you would never know by looking at them. I have a flame, rhomboidalis, pintail, and lineatus and the lubbocks blends right in in being one of my favorite.

I've owned 2 lubbocks over the years. Both were extremely peaceful, gorgeous, and inexpensive.

Stay away from a whip fin fairy, I had one and it terrorized everything it could. Including dwarf angels and anthias.
