Help work out a stocking plan (ish)…

[i cant think]

Guys, I need help!

Been looking at wrasses which I can source through various ways (imports & our main dealer). And ones which I’ve always loved but never pulled the trigger on are Anampses femininus and Anampses lennardi.

Now, obviously they’re both colder water species, with Fems generally being able to tolerate upto 23.5°c (74.3°F) and Lennardi tolerating closer to the 24°c (75°F). Now. Obviously my tank currently runs close to the 24°c but I’m aiming to see if I can go as low as 23.5°c to open the Fem as an option.
But, if these get crossed off the list for one way or another, I’d love some ideas of other wrasses (or fish in general) - here is my full stocklist:

Majestic Angel

Multicolour Angel

Flag Fin Angel

Magnificent Foxface

Two Bar Rabbitfish

Naked Clownfish

Naked Clownfish

Tiger Goby

Yellow Watchman Goby

Hybrid Orchid Dottyback

Red Back Pearlscale/Crown Butterfly

Red Head Fairy Wrasse

Brunneus Fairy Wrasse

Laboute's Fairy Wrasse

Lineatus Fairy Wrasse

Lubbock's Fairy Wrasse (INDO)

Red Lined Wrasse

Radiant Wrasse

Diamond Tail Flasher Wrasse

Mystery Wrasse

Kaleidos' Pencil Wrasse (M)

Kaleidos' Pencil Wrasse (F)

And an oldish FTS of the tank.

Ah yes, glad you called! Aaron will of course need my help…
Keith, you do know that Aaron is like the king of the wrasse nerds right?! The three of us would know nothing if it weren’t for him?

Well, I’ll try my best. If I were to go slightly cooler I’d look at eastern Pacific fish. The most well known is of course the blue spot jawfish but, if you can source some, Catalina gobies are an awesome addition. Another place you'd open up is the Mediterranean and hey, for those you can just go grab them yourselves. Though admittedly the only fish that come to mind is Thalassoma pavo, but that's probably to fierce for you.
