Plenty of sump and filtration, older 3rd gen eshopps rs200 simplicity 120dc skimmer

Current live stock is two clowns, black snowflake and black misbar

Thanks

id say a couple wrasses for sure.
Most from these genera should be alright (I’d say make your own list of them and then we can sort through the list if you do want wrasses);
Halichoeres
Macropharyngodon
Xenojulis
Cirrhilabrus
Pseudocheilinops
Wetmorella

A yellow ‘coris’ will work for sure, a mel would likely get a bit too large IMO.

I have a semi suddo stocking list on my build thread if you’d like to stop by and check it out.
Notice I mention a couple fish I would like to have but tank size says that’s not gonna happen.

Would that add a conflict of interest with the two mated clowns I have already? Speaking towards the flame angels.
No conflict, you could add a yellow coris wrasse also no problem, or replace the possum with the yellow. I have a yellow in a 65g and he is one of my favorite.
