Hello everyone,

I recently (2 months ago) bought my first tank a 250 red sea with livestock including a large number of corals and 4 clownfish (ocellaris clownfish) 1 lawnmower benny, 1 banggai cardinalfish, 1blood shrimp, 1 cleaner shrimp, 1 banded coral shrimp and 1 bown scopas tang to which i added a decorator crab and a green clown goby.

I am looking to add some more fish and wonder if this is a good idea given the fish I already got and the size of the tank. I am looking to add a engineer goby, pistol tiger shrimp, yellow watchman goby and a melanurus wrasse.

Would this be too much? I would possibly re-home the largest two of my clownfish. Given they have been a bit aggresive to myself and I heared from the previous owner other fish (however when i added the green clown goby they bothered it at first but they get along just fine now. I would also possibly re-home my bown scopas tang given it should be in a larger tank but as of now im not sure if i should do this now or when he outgrows the tank. See my tank below.

I would say to re-home 2 of the clowns and the tang. Then you would be able to add the fish you have listed.
 
x2 Ocellaris Clowns (pair)

x1 Bangaii Cardinal

x1 Lawnmower Blenny

x1 Yellow Watchman Goby + Tiger Pistol Shrimp

x1 Melanurus Wrasse

x1 Flameback / Cherub Angel or a more peaceful damsel species like an Azure or Yellowtail

x1 Engineer Goby

This a suggestion for what to put in the tank? Or what do you mean by this
