135 Stocking

Hello,

In my one mixed reef tanks i have the following stock

Hippo Tang - 3"
Yellow Tang - 2.5"
Tomini Tang 2"
Wantanabi Angel - 3"
Dusky Wrasse
Yellow Corris Wrasse
Orange Cardinal Fish
2x Clowns
Royal Gramma

Thoughts on adding more fish to this system ? No aggression everyone "currently" gets along

If so any recommendations ?

You can add a decent amount more fish. Maybe not some big tangs or angelfish but some small-medium sized fish.

i forgot i also have a watchman goby but super small minds his own business. I am gonna look now to see what else i can add. I would like to add some fairy wrasse but out of all the fish the dusky is the one who randomly will chase the corris wrasse for a second and the wantanabi and hippo will intervene and put an end to it

Strong Interest would be​

• Pyramid Butterflyfish
• Bella Goby
• Tilefish
• Mandarin Goby

Anthias (with reservations)​

• Blotched Anthias
• Concern: Most anthias thrive on multiple feedings and i can only feed once daily I would setup an autofeeder for them without a question asked but the chances they eat pellet food off the rip is probably 0%

Damsels​

• Cons: jerks and almost impossible to remove if they turn rogue
• Alternative: Chromis – More peaceful, schooling option but disease and i dont really want to treat fish with formaldehyde that will probably end up unaliving each other anyways.

Other options​

• Firefish
• Clown Gobies
• ?

The strong interest fish should be fine to add.

If you want the blotched anthias I would just go to the lfs and ask them to feed them pellets. But they aren’t super hard to get on pellets if they dont eat pellets.

Some damsels like sapphire damsels will be fine. I’ve never had an issue with them. But chromis are also a good option, so it’s up to you which one you want to get. If you’re worried about diseases just buy them pre quarantined.

The other options are also fine to add.
