I have a 100g sumped tank with live rock, bubbletip anemones, mushrooms and gsp
Current stock is
4 green chromis
6 line wrasse
Mandarin
Aptasia file fish
Scooter blenny
Starry algae blenny
Cleaner shrimp

Need a bit more colour and free swimmers to add visual enhancement and colour

All parameters are good and in the recommended tolerances, and everything is doing well
And am running Kessil ap700 lights

Any ideas for more fish most welcomed? Want peaceful community fish if that helps, or 1 statement visually appealing fish
Thanks for any input
 
I'd recommend a yellow tang (from Biota, they offer 7 day alive guarantee and you can use code REEFSTACHE for 10% off), and/or a dwarf angel. I've kept flame angels and currently have a coral beauty and never had any coral nipping issues. Both of these options will give you plenty of color and free-swimming activity
 
Thanks, will look into the coral beauty as it’s an appealing fish
But want to stay away from tangs as so many mixed reactions to them
 
I think you have space for 3 or 4 anthias, very colourful and active, always swimming around all day.
 
Have looked at those yes, just after a few varied opinions then narrow it down
Thankyou

Really? I’ve never seen a single instance of a yellow tang being a problem, except to other tangs, sometimes

What are your tank dimensions? A yellow might work for bright color and algae control? Coral beauty great fish too.
