Hey Everyone! I set up my 180 about a month ago and currently I have my old midas blenny and a new yellow tang in there. I've been struggling to narrow down a list for stocking. Does anyone have any good ideas of some cool unique fish I should plan on adding at some point. I also have a hippo tang arriving Friday pre-quarantined from marine collectors. Soon after this I plan on getting some diamond gobies, tomini tang and a coris wrasse and get them into quarantine. Thanks!
 
Well I don’t know what you should get, but I’ve learned of a few fish that I do love because they are always working.
Foxface lo
Two spot bristle tooth tang
Melanorus wrasse
Copperband

The above are pretty much mandatory for me personally. I have a longhorn Cowfish in mine that has a puppy dog type personality, but is capable of making a mess by spitting water. I also love anthias and chromis because they fill the tank with color and movement.
