Fish Choice

[Wild1]

Hey all, I have a currently up and running 90 gallon mixed reef, mostly LPS and softies. I am trying to decide between adding either a Flame Fin Tang, or a Fox Faced Rabbit Fish as my last occupant. Is one safer than the other reef wise, and what would be my best option? TIA

Tang can be temperamental - Can, not always and foxface nice fish, but spooks easily and may turn on soft coral especially zoas

If you are speaking just about which is more reef safe, I would say the Tomini tang. Both are capable of going rogue, but I think the Fox Face tips the scale just a bit more towards questionable. If they are well fed, though, I think they are not likely to bother anything, and would just choose the fish you like better.
