I was doing more research and came across the Coris wrasse. These fish look awesome. Will they be ok in a large predatory tank (with a Niger Trigger, Puffer, Tang, Angelfish, and Tomato Clowns)?

I also saw the following fish: Garibaldi damselfish. Here is a link: http://www.reefhotspot.com/store/product_i...609c7c7bc918676.

How would this fish fare in a predatory tank? Would it be too aggressive even for the niger trigger?
 
coris are big aggresive wrasses, they get very large and thus require a deep sand bed in order to bury themshelves not something i would recomend.
 
I'd actually reccomend a Coris for your tank, would do well. They can also sleep in rockwork, not necessarily the sand bed. I'd avoid the Garibaldi damselfish though. They're a cooler water species in the Pacific and are MUCH more timid than the rest of your stock list. Probably wouldn't last long in a tank full of aggressive fish at a higher temp.

Yeah, the garibaldi will not do well in the higher temps, they can be SLOWLY acclimated over the course of weeks, but even then they can stress out and drop.
