I currently have 2 reef tanks, one SPS dominant and one mixed; as well as an Erectus tank. Have setup a 36 bow that was in storage to be a FOWLR tank as there are so many cool fish and inverts that arent reef friendly.
Just need some suggestions for good candidates in this size tank.
Thanks in Advance, rather new to R2R so hope this is in the correct forum and all that [emoji16]
 
That's a bit of a challenge, as most of the fish small enough to be comfortable in a 36 are also pretty reef-safe. However, you might look into some of the filefish or toby puffers that don't get too big, such as the Valentini or leopard puffer. There are some frogfish that might work as well, but that kind of limits other tankmates.

Yes that's why I was hoping for some suggestions. Not looking to cram it full either, just a couple cool oddballs.
One of the tanks first residents was actually a Valentini
 
I really like my Firefish. You can get them to feed out of your hand - well almost.
