Need suggestions on "filler fish"

[John08007]

I have a mixed reef with the typ inhabitants, clowns, tang, gobies. I need some more fish to fill up the tank some. My lfs has the black/white damsel fish pretty cheap but these typ grow up and become aggressive, prob both possible choices. I've never had cardinal fish or firefish. Any suggestions on some peaceful fish that are kinda inexpensive.

Blue/Green chrome's

Cardinals are good peaceful fish, lyretail anthias is a good choice as well. Royal gramma is another one to consider.

I really like my firefish, green clown goby, Banggai cardinal and orchid dottyback.

Buy a couple candy basslets, you’ll never see them, they are crazy expensive, and tiny. The perfect fish.

In all seriousness however some of the cheaper anthias are a lot of fun. Only thing is they have to fed a couple times a day. Blue green chromis are great too

Cherub angel :) 2 1/2” Max length and all the stores in my area have em for around $20. Longnose/geometric hawks too

How big of a tank, and how much room you trying to fill? Bigger “slow floating” fish are my go-to. Don’t care for the little fast guys

Get about 5 or more Azura Damsels. They are mostly peaceful, just protecting their territory.
Gives your tank some nice movement and color

A Royal Gamma Basslet might be an option.

Another vote for blue green chromis. I got six for the same reason and they stay high in the water column and are usually schooling. They hold their own during feeding time and they're fun to watch. And probably one of the cheapest fish you'll find.
