Yellow coris wrasse and pink-streaked wrasse in 45 gallon?

djryan2000 · 06/17/2020, 11:53 AM

Would I be able to keep these two wrasses in a JBJ 45? My concern is that they’re so similar. However, I’ve seen tanks filled with wrasses on YT so I’m curious as to if I could house these two wrasses in my tank considering they’re both considered peaceful wrasses.

I know there’s no guarantee that they will or won’t get along - I’m just wondering which outcome is more likely.

Anything of the six-line's type is apt to be aggressive toward other wrasses. The coris wrasse is peaceful. The pink-streaked is also small, and the report I could find says generally not aggressive.
