Brown / Turning Green Bird Wrasse

[irenicus]

I introduced him into my tank and I've noticed he is getting into tussles with my Halq. Tusk. Do you think this will subside? Any advice? This is an aggressive 75 with lots of lr for hiding?
I was thinking about adding a blue headed wrasse too? I had a lunare in there once... he did quite well with everyone.

What size is your lunare? What behaviors did he/she exihibit?

Putting multiple wrasses in a tank that size is normally asking for trouble. I would think that they should eventually set up territories and the fighting will subside though.

I came home tonight and the bird wrasse was resting all stressed out. I reached in the tank and actually picked him up ?!?! I put him in my roommate's tank and now he is at ease. Perhaps i'll try later when I put a tad more rock in. The halq tusk acts like a bad ass but it's so funny to see the juvi emp angel lay the smack down on him when he gets too big of head. Gotta love the pecking orders. Anyways...
I'd like to try some sort of wrasse w/ my Halq Tusk... any suggestions? 75 gallon/
