I have a 29 gallon tank with only 1 fish in there(bicolor blenny), and i would like to add the following:
Six lined wrasse
firefish
In what order should i add them and will they be aggressive towards anything in the tank?

i had a firefish that killed itself cause i was told they are "darting fish" and he darted himself right into the side of the tank.

I have a 29 gallon as well and after i told the LFS the firefish died that is when i found out they were darting and all that other stuff I dunno just a little heads up for ya.

I'll take actions if i see that happening.

I had a firefish in my tank which got bullied. It just hid and one day I found it half beat up, next day I found it dead!

Add the six line last IMO

Okay any other suggestions people?

Firefish generally don't do well with more aggressive tankmates and six lines can tend to be aggressive. You could look into a goby/shrimp pair, possum wrasse (I love this fish), royal gramma, or bangaii cardinal. These are just a few I like.
