I have a small six line wrasse and I want to get some sexy shrimp soon. The six line is the only fish in the tank I'm worried would attack the shrimp. I know they can be pricks, does anyone keep a six line with small shrimp?
so far he has been a model citizen and hasn't picked on any one in a while
i have sps colonies the shrimp could hide in, would this help?

Have you thought about maybe getting one or two peppermint shrimp and placing them in there. See how they do, and if they turn into wrasse grub you wont be out as much cash. As far a mine goes, it doesn't mess with any shrimp in my tank. But you never know from fish to fish.

I have had two six lines and had no issues with either
