So, just bouncing off the forum my fish load in my 127 gallon tank, 160 gallons total water volume roughly. Is this too much, enough, or is there room for more?

1 Royal Gramma
4 Blue reef Chromis
2 Oscellaris clowns
2 Exquisite firefish
1 Midas blenny
1 African sailfin blenny
1 fairy wrasse
1 one spot foxface
For a grand total of 13 currently.

Would like to get a Cosmetus wrasse, and a tang at the end. My gut says to drop 2-3 of the blue reef chromis to keep my total at 12-13 fish. Tank dimensions are: 60x24x20.5”

Agree with my thoughts?

Thanks!
 
I don't see anything to worry about, most are smaller and peaceful at that. I have 10 in a 75g:

Yellow tang
Coral beauty angel
Copperband butterfly
Yellow assessor
Royal gramma
Firefish
Tailspot blenny
Diamond goby
Randall's goby
Banggai cardinal

Outside of the yellow tang, there are no issues (aggressive towards the butterfly and angel). I'm not sure if I'm going to move it to the 150g or just get rid of it altogether.
