Jeremevans Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Are they round? Planaria are often reddish brown and not round. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WingRider62 Posted May 18, 2017 Author Share Posted May 18, 2017 I have two Wrasses already (Red Tail Coris and a Melanarus) will a 6 Line be okay with those guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think they would want to munch down on them. If they were flatworms. It may get a long. It can be kinda aggressive but is a small one and added last. Don't over wrasse yourself though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as overwrasing... I personally subscribe to the "you can never have too many wrasses" theory with the sole exception of the six line. Kept lots of wrasses together over the years and only had a serious problem with six lines. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would terrorize the other fish but was sneaky about it. He especially did not like other wrasses. He prefered the sudden rush which would spook them and often cause them to jump. Lost a lineatus that way. Would seriously not have one again as I don't find them worth the risk despite how attractive they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk After watching the coral for awhile, I am thinking it's part of the coral and not a pest. Thanks for asking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
