Howdy folks!

Im ready to add my last and final fish.. need opinions.. My tank is 80 total gallons with a 60 gallon display. 48x18x18. I have about 40 pounds of rock and a marine pure plate in then sump. I run a real basic setup with a slimmer and a fuge. I also always have a bag of carbon running in the sump and a small reactor running rowaphos. Tank parameters are all groovy.

My livestock consists of:
2 Clowns
Midas Blenny
Royal Gramma
Melanarus Wrasse
Cleaner Shrimp
Pom Pom crab (I think he’s still in there)
A snail only CUC
Rainbow BTA
And a handful of corals...

I want to add one last fish which would be a kole eye tang.

Pros? Cons? Can my tank handle it? Is the mole eye going to cause problems with my other guys? I have VERY minimal algae in the display, is that going to be a problem? I know tangs like to graze on it..

I would love to add a mandarin in time as well, but i could live with out it. Lol.

I would love any thoughts you guys may have!

Also.. can anyone recommend any other cool inverts that I could add? My wrasse seems to leave my inverts alone, so not a huge worry there.

Thanks!
 
Your be find with key hole tang. Especially since your tank is 48". He most likely get no bigger than around 6". They say around 70 gal or bigger.
 
The kole tang should be fine. Most individuals are well behaved, thoughI have had to remove one in the past that was super aggressive to my leopard wrasses.
