almost all can be kept.

avoid punctatus wrasse aka fine spotted and scott. they are known to be the more or perhaps the msot agressive to people.

larger laboutei as well.

basically, its also very much depended on how settled they are. flame wrasse are known to be timid. but i can see mine chasing barlett and other wrasse.

have fun with them but be prepared to pay the bill and drop your heart.

If a man could beat his own fantasy. Then to only breed in captivity. Then its pointless.

Genesis 1:20

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

enjoy your fairies and plan your stocking well. all can be kept in a tank that size. but scott's fairies can be aggressive. they don't hold their colour well anyway.

if you are just beginning and trying out fairies for the first time, i reccomend exquisite, rosyscale and solar. they hold their colour rather well and are not as aggressive. and they are hardy too.

rosyscales are agressive. it being said and experienced by me twice as well.

if want to get, get small ones for rosy. and they are hardy.

fairies will not fight if your tank is big enough, but some chasing, squabbling may happen. it all depends on tank size and what wrasses u add. if keeping many big males together, they may engage in simultaenous flashing with erected fins and a dazzling colour display to fend off or intimidate each other. this is one of their ways of "fighting" with each other.

colours become enhanced and brighter when they get excited or aggressive too. generally peaceful with other fairies, but introduce the more timid ones first.

try not to add more than 1 of the same wrasse unless its male/female. more than 1 males may fight and result in 1 dying, or reverting back to females. although i have seen multiple males of the same species being kept together. also depends on the species. more peaceful fairies may tolerate multiple males if the tank is big enough.
