Copper bands may or may not eat corals. Depends on the fish. What are the dimensions of the tank? That would be a big key into if you could have multiple tangs

Okay, tangs need lots of swimming room. A bristletooth would probably be okay as the only tang since they are smaller but I wouldnt put any other tang in there with one, they do best in at least 6 foot tanks

You're choices are solid. Utilitarian fish are important. Well, not the Mandarin --- Its only job is to look good!

I knew I need one of those as soon as I saw it at the aquarium
 
Tangs have options. If a bristletooth is fine better known as a kole tang or yellow eye kole tang. There is the white tail kole tang. The yellow tang and purple tang both get about same size as the hole tang. The yellow mimic tang is roughly slightly larger.

The smallest of all would be the flame fin or tomini tang. I love this little fish. Max size around 5" kept one for almost 6 years. It arrived around 4" in size and barely grew the entire time I owned it. Assuming it shipped as almost an adult.
