60g last few fish?

[AC1211]

So in my 60g I have the following:
2 ocellaris clowns
1 yellow coris wrasse (stressed by the tangs but likely still alive) (hides a bit)
1 diamond watchman goby
5 blue green chromis
1 yellow tang
1 yellow eyed kole tang
4 LPS Frags
1 rock flower anemone (the tank is 13 months old)

Do I have the room to add:
1 lawnmower blenny (to finish off hair algae)
1 aiptasia eating filefish (in case aiptasia comes back but right now its dead)
1 small fish or goby (idk like a yellow watchman goby or a clown goby or one of those gecko gobies)
Also I want to add some soft corals should I wait until the small LPS frags grow if its been 6 months or should I add them?

I would say your good to add the blenny, the filefish will likely nip corals so up to you, I wouldn't put another watchman goby in so maybe 2 clown gobies.
Soft corals should be safe to add since they don't effect your calcium alkalinity etc consumption

I may find some small goby that is not similar and add it with the blenny to the tank. I could wait on the filefish.

I thought the yellow watchman was different enough that I would be fine. There is no plans for this tank having sps anymore I gave up on the idea after my lps although surviving is not growing through 6 months. What small goby species should I use I am scared though bc the tangs may have killedmy yellow coris wrasse but I have many sand piles where it could be hiding.

The aggression wasn’t the main reason i said not to add the yellow, it was because it and the diamond would probably out compete eachother for food and both starve

Clown gobies will happily hang out in soft corals and be happy. Mine loved my green nepthea in the past. That is a big bioload for the 60g. Tangs can cause a lot of poop. I would stick to a small fish like clown gobies to help keep bioload lower.
What softies are you thinking? Some are hard on LPS (certain ones anyway).

Well the tangs won't be there forever I may pull them out eventually. I was going to put a bunch of mushroom corals in.

I don't know my fish are pretty well fed. The only skinny fish are new fish for a week. My concern is aggression from my tangs although I have no confirmation my tangs likely killed my yellow coris wrasse as it has been missing for 6 weeks.

Shrooms should not be an issue for lps. Would love to see some pictures. Got a build thread?

Build Thread - Nuvo 60g "reef"

So this is my tank is has been up for a little over 10 months... a lot will be attempted with this tank in the future tell me what you think and any fish suggestions because I only have a couple more fish planned but I would like to have more options. I would avoid calling it any one thing...

A pistol shrimp/goby pair. Would not have a tank without them.

yes however watchmen gobies get most of their food from the sand bed and often won't eat mysis etc

Mine eats mysis and pellets rather well.

did you train it to do so or anything and does it actively go after them?

3 days on mysis then over to pellets is what always worked with every fish for me until I had to use masstick on the kole tang.
