So fairy wrasses don't eat much of anything pest wise? I have a bunch of bristleworms that I'd like their population reduced. Would a mystery wrasse do the job? I also am looking at getting a Potter's leopard wrasse. If you wrasse experts wanna tell me a little about those 2 I'd appreciate it.

Mystery wrasses are awesome , but can get aggressive as they get older.  Very territorial.
Potters leopard wrasses are fantastic, mild mannered, always hunting in and out of the rocks for pods.  I dought they eat bristle worms.  Don't know.  If you get a mystery wrasse, add it last.  Potters, the key is finding a healthy one . They don't ship well.

You don't get to see these guys too often.  I just got a pair of Kuiter's Leopard wrasses.
The smaller female went right to the sand, but the male stayed out long enough to get these shots before I went back to work.
