Looking for a fish that will do well in my frag tank (tied into my 75g display). Anyone have suggestions, or would you even bother putting a fish in there?

Most frag tanks I have seen have at least one six line Wrasse (depending on the size) and one tang or fox face. I’ve seen a few with some damsels or a clown or two. The six line is a must for critter control, imo
I have had six lines in nearly every tank I’ve ever run (except the nanos) and never had one jump. I currently have one in a 60 open top and he’s never even gotten close to scared enough to jump. As for the tang, one of the LFSs in our area has a shallow frag tank with a Fox face in it. He actually comes to the surface and spits water at everyone. He’s happy there and the tank he’s in is only about 15” deep. If you’re worried, get a tomini or something that stays small.I've been considering a 6 line, but worry about jumping... they are wrasses after all. Also not sure a tang would fit considering there's only about 7" of water above the frag rack...
That’s awesome. Would love to see thatI have had six lines in nearly every tank I’ve ever run (except the nanos) and never had one jump.
