Newly cycled 135 yellow tang or yellow mimic tang

Update. Some fish and my corals finally in

I like wrasses. If you are looking for yellow, a yellow coris - halichoeres chrysus - might work with the other fish on your list. I have one in a mixed reef with other wrasses, anthias, couple tangs, and it is a great fish.

You are likely to have problems with both the Firefish and the Chromis. Unless you have a fish in the tank that scares them into shoaling activities they will gradually kill each other off until you are down to either a mating pair or just one. Very few people are able to keep a school of either long term. I would do a bunch of research before you try that route. It can be done, but it is a challenge.

I have a small group of chromis and I’ve never run into problems so imo they are fine.

Coris eat crustaceans

I’ve done black sand and need bright colors with minimal aggression. Suggestions on fish please? Currently have a Wyoming white and Mocha clown, blue damsel and 2 conch

Personally I would've gone with the Yellow Mimic Tang, but the yellow should be okay in a 135.

Yellow coris isn't a true Coris species, and while they potentially can eat invert I have found them very unlikely to do so.

I agree, and specifically said, it can be done. I would caution against the line of thinking that just because you have done it means that it is never a problem. There are forum posts full of people who have tried schools of them and end up with one or a pair.

+1 on this. Mine hasn't bothered anything. It is possible that it could turn on me, just like any other "with caution" fish, but it's been a year and this particular fish has been a model citizen.

Thanks for the feedback. Current inhabitants are 4 clownfish, small yellow tang, small Mag Foxface, a 1 Eyed 6line wrasse and a blue damsel. Waiting to see what else I may add. So happy to have my corals in.
