I have a 120 mixed reef with 2 lyretail anthias (1 male and 1 female). Originally I bought three females, but I lost one, and one of the remaining turned male.

Would it be a dumb idea to buy a few more females and make a harem? I was thinking three additional but I’m open to other ideas.

I have 11 blue green chromis as well, that have been acting as somewhat of a distraction to the anthias, so that might help.
 
I’ve already done that in my large system, I added another 6 or so fish and now have 13 and there fine.
