Halichoeres compatability

Have Christmas Wrasse in my 125 gal. Any problem putting in a Radiant Wrasse and/or Melanurus Wrasse since both have similarity in coloration?

With the info you provided, if you have a 2-3" sandbed I don't think you would have any issues there. The Halichoeres ornatissimus would probably be the least hardy of the 3 and if he is already in the tank and doing well you should be o.k.

I have a radiant & a chrysus in a 210gal. They get along fine now, but there was some chasing after I added the radiant. They should be fine together.

I had a yellow coris wrasse that i have been having about 3 months, about 2 weeks ago i added a christmas wrasse, and he harrased and chase him to death.

the christmas wrasse only in there for 1 day before he started chasing the smaller yellow coris.

hopefuly your exerience is better, i have a 7ft tank with plenty of rock, and he would come from one side of the tank and nip him.
