We have all different good colors of fishes in the 73g tank wondering if there are any pink colored fish, reef safe and peaceful fish that i can find.

Already have clown, neon damsel, chromis, flame angel, tang, royal gramma, fire fish, antihas.

Wanted a pink fish for my new built too. Ended up getting a Pink Margin Fairy Wrasse. It’s a female but should transition one day.

Definitely anthias, sunburst do well singly and are incredibly pretty imo. Depends also what you consider reef safe and how "pink" you need it, I have a moyeri leopard (m moyeri) wrasse and earmuff wrasse (h melasmopomus), both of which are somewhat pink though they can be known to pick off shrimp/snails/crabs on occasion. I'd skip the pink streak wrasse in that size tank (they're tiny...30g peaceful or less imo, though they pair easily and could be neat if you had two).

Pink Streaked Wrasse would probably be the best addition that fits what you want. They don't bother corals or inverts but will also provide some pest removal services for you. They have a very unique sort of personality and quirky way in which they swim.
