looking to add fish

[mainereefer]

I am thinking I need a few fish to add to my 180. personally I like the corals and just a couple fish but most ppl like to look at fish in a fish tank! lol
I want a few totally reef safe peaceful fish, meaning coral and invert safe. I really dont want any "common fish" like chromis or damsels ......... but also dont want anything that will break the bank

the only thing I know I am adding to the tank will be a yellow assessor. what are your thoughts?

fish I have
half black mimic tang
blizzard clowns
helfrichi firefish
starry blenny
blue mandarin

Borbonius Anthia would look good in your tank.Not common fish for sure.

doesn't that one break the bank? or am i mistaken? I think a powder tang would be cool if I had a 180 gallon tank.

Powder, Achilles, purple. Some anthias or wrasses either flashers or fairies or my favorites leopad wrasses of any kind

I got mine for $150. You can find one in $150-$200 range.Hardly consider this breaking a bank for "not common" fish.

I have seen them at the lfs here they are around $100-$150 but I understood they like colder water, lower light.......
I pay wholesale at the lfs around here not retail so most wont break the bank:) basically any fish under $200 retail. I just dont want ppl to post jem tangs or something even close to its price range


as for wrasses and anthia everyone I have had has been a pain wrasses always eat my snails and crabs and my anthia I have now went berserk now he just sits in the rockwork looking out dosnt ever move? (not sure what kind it is pink/orange with red tips on its tailfin?)

fish dont have to be expensive to not be common. the tang I have retails for about $30 but I have never seen one in anyones tank. and gold assesor's, never seen a post saying check out my new assesor but they are only about $50 retail

I just want stuff that ppl say wow thats cool, I havent seen one of them before
