I was thinking about adding a dragon Wrasse to my larger tank. I wanted some input on whether or not this was an ok idea. I currently have in this tank. A purple tang, coral beauty, sixline, yellow goby, malcour niger, and a coral bannded shrimp. Everyone coexists quite well right now. the dragon wrasse im looking at is not a Juevenile, but is only about 3.5 in long. Any input would be nice. Ive been debating over my next fish for some time. Also thinking about a bi-color Goat fish.
Scott Michaels, author of "Reef Aquarium Fishes" has this to say, "...the Rockmover or Dragon Wrasse is not only a threat to invertebrates, it can be very aggressive toward any fish tankmates. Although ornate, interesting and relatively well behaved as a juvenile (it) will become a destructive and uncontrollable aquarium inhabitant as it matures.".
I had one a long time ago that took on that exact role. I determined, never again.

Thank you all for your input. I think he can stay at the lfs. I'm thankfull for this fourum to do reaserch on before jumping into the fire with both feet. I still would like to figure out what my next fish should be. Back to the drawing board.
