Tank is a reefer 525 G3 and has been running for 4 months now.

My Current stock:
2 × Black Ocellaris Clownfish
4 × Yellowtail Damselfish
1 × Yellow Coris Wrasse
1 × Sailfin Tang
1 × Yellow Watchman Goby
1 × Royal Gramma

I am planning on what i'm adding next and wanted the following:

1 × Purple Tang
1 × Laboute’s Fairy Wrasse
1 × Midas Blenny
4 × Dispar Anthias
1 × Copperband Butterflyfish
1 × Mandarin Dragonet

1x foxface ( too much ? )

i shouldn't of got the salfin to start with as i know they get abit too big but i was a gift.
My original plan was to get a purple tang and a yellow eye kole tang but now ive got the salfin im not sure the purple is a good idea.

Any other tang ideas that are bright and stand out thats not gonna cost me £200+ ?
 
I mean is the sailfin aggressive? The purple tang has a different body shape than him so I wouldn’t immediately rule it out unless the sailfin is mean and territorial.

the purple tang unfortunately isnt a good idea as they are especially known to be aggressive towards similiar tangs, a tang that would get along nicely would be some kind of bristletooth tang like a tomini. as far as the dragonet I would wait a bit longer to add it so the copepod population has more time to mature and grow, the copperband butterfly as you know can be very very finicky eaters at first but should be fine as long as live foods are used to wean them onto frozen and prepared (they cant resist live black worms)
how old are your damselfish? if they're still juvenile they can become nippier towards the peaceful fish as they mature and grow
lastly the foxface should be fine
