Fish Stocking Question *Replacement for a MIA Six-line*

[slice]

Skittles, the Six-line Wrasse, has been MIA since a thorough tank cleaning last Saturday. He had been in the tank for over a year and was the picture of health. I don't know of anything I did that would have harmed him during the cleaning. I've looked everywhere, inside and outside the tank for a body...nothing.
We've always had (and love) a Six-line in the tank and cannot envision not having one, but I am unsure how a new arrival would be accepted at this point.
Current occupants:
Flame Angel, a year in the tank next month
Royal Gramma, in the tank 2 1/2 years
LMB, in the tank about a year
No one has been overly aggressive; arguments have never com to blows.
Do you think a replacement Six-line would be accepted? Any other reef-safe Wrasse suggestions?

I would say try it and see. Or wait a month and see if your other one comes out of the sand. lol. I know that I have had fish go MIA for a few weeks and then appear out of the blue in "the picture of health."
Putting another one in there shouldn't be an issue - almost like skittles returned to the tank and wasn't ever really gone to begin with. lol

Thanks Seth, that is what I was thinking; just wanted more learned confirmation.
