Yep, I got those before people knew about them too much. HUGE mistake. They get big, and horribly mean to everything. Ask me how I know too.....

Pilotfish, Porkfish, Oriental sweetlips, Moorish Idols, Bumblee bee grouper, Raccoon or Semilivartis butterflyfish to name a few, but Australian stripeys or Striped blennies would be my pick.

Sergeant major damsel, convict tang (kinda yellowish), or hectors goby. There’s also some Amblyeleotris and Stonogobiops that have bumblebee patterns, though aren’t necessarily yellow and black.
Australian stripeys would make great bumble bees if they were reef safe, which I’m assuming you’d want.

Black and yellow definitely seems to be more of a freshwater/brackish thing, as the pattern helps fish blend into dense plants. It also occasionally serves as poison warning colors, hence the color’s abundance on various puffers and boxfish.
