Im getting ready to upgrade from a 75g to 125g (6' x 18") and was hoping to get some advice on good community fish to add to my tank. I have a couple of zoas and may add some other softies or some BTA's. So far I've got this
- 2 Oscellaris Clowns
- YWG w/ pistol shrimp
- Diamond Goby
- Midas Blenny
- Lawnmower Blenny
- Bangaii Cardinal
- Pintail Fairy Wrasse
- Coral Beauty
- Hippo Tang (still in QT till the 26th and very small)

with your hippo as a centrepiece and the fact it will become so big, I would maybe consider to add 1 more fish. Something like a smaller type of wrasse. (Leopard, orangeback fairy,…). Roywl gramma is one that can’t be missing in a tank in my opinion. Be careful with territorial behaviour with your current stock if you go for a basslet

I like the Royals. Mine just seem to hide and die. I like Naoko Wrasses but im not sure how it does with a Pintail.
