Filling 45 gal waterbox

[Reefguy13]

Hey all. I have a 45 gallon waterbox. I have an idea what I want to out in there but wanted some more suggestions. Trying to do 3-5 fish in the tank. Tank currently has 2 black snowflake clowns but probably gonna get rid of 1. Gonna be a mixed reef. Let me know what you would stick it with

I don't think that you should get rid of the other clownfish. A mated pair is always a good idea. For a mixed reef some fish and inverts that I recommend are the following:

Pistol Shrimp & Goby
Anthias
Scopas Tang/ Rhino Tang/ Yellow Tang
Clean-up crew Snails/Hermit Crabs/etc.

For a mixed reef around 6 fish here sounds like a good idea. These are some nice fish and a clean up crew should make for an awesome reef tank. I hope that this helps you make the big decision on what you want to do with the tank!

I appreciate the suggestions thanks. Anthias is def on my list already. I might get rid of the one clown because he/she keeps going after the other one
