75 gal stocking suggestions

[SR52012]

Ok peeps,
My wife and I just plumbed my 75 gal tank this weekend and we need some ideas for stocking. We will be moving the following fish into the tank when ready:

1Target Mandarin
1Yellow watchman
1Bangani cardinal
1 Clown
1 Oyster blenny (tiny local blenny that came on a rock)

Tank is a 75 with a 55 gal for a sump so total volume will end up being about 100ish gal.

If you want some of the fairy wrasses make sure you do not purchase a six line in the meantime.

Other than that what direction would you like to take it in?

Fish only gives you the option of some beautiful dwarf angelfish.

Different types of corals all have their own Beauty and some are easy maintenance.

Fairy or flasher wrasses, royal gramma, flame or longnose hawkfish.

Sorry, it will be a mixed reef, i have corals that will be moving in also.

Flame angle and Toby puffer

Flame Hawkfish. I have one in my 75g tank and is one of my favorites

Im thinking a longnose hawk

You can have both is a 75 gallon tank with a lot of rock if they start small and you get the right 2 fish.
Those 2 and the Falco hawkfish are supposed to be the least aggressive hawkfish.

You will most likely need smaller fish to make it work.

I am also thinking of a FoxFace

Never had a foxface. Don't they get huge like a tang?

I would say look into wrasses a lot to choose from. I'll be looking to add a fish or two to my 75 gallon also. I just lost my red banded hawkfish. He was in my tank along with a snowflake eel

Swissguard or Swalesi basslet, grammica lined or scissor tail Dartfish, tilefish, or a wrasse.

They do get to a good size. They aren't as hyperactive as tangs, but probably are too big for a 75g.

The one spot fox is on the smaller side.... and, if you plan to add shrimps, put them first before the hawks, imo

One spot foxfaces still reach 8", that's a big fish for a 75g.
