Looking for suggestions to add to my peaceful fish only tank! I don’t have very many corals and I am. It that attached to them so it’s ok if they might pick at corals. I would like either nice color, personality, or both!

I have a 100g cube tank with a 20g sump

I currently have:
Mandarin dragonet
X2 clowns
X2 anthias
X2 bangi cardinals
Dimond back sand sifting goby
Starry blenny
x2 skunk cleaner shrimp

All recommendations must be peaceful!

If you don’t want coral, a thread fin butterfly is a great fish.

I’ve had good luck with a tomini tang, mandarins are great if you have lots of pods, the options are pretty broad.

Not a real stunner but harptail blennies are a fun fish. Its the only fish in my tank that actually interacts with me. Its always checking out what Im doing.

I second this. Take advantage of being fish only and add a corallivore, there are some incredible butterfly fish out there.

Leopard wrasse, and Radiant wrasse would work if you have sand that they can bury into to sleep and hide. Carpenter wrasse and mcCosker wrasse, firefish
