Le me know what you think:

Currently in DT:
1.) Regal Angel - 4"
2.) Potters Angel - 3.5"
3-4.) ORA Clownfish Pair - 3" and 2.5"
5.) Purple Tang - 2.5"
6.) Radiant Wrasse - 2.5"
7.) Pair of Rhomboid Wrasse (2.5" and 3")

Currently in QT:
8.) Melanurus Wrasse Terminal Male - 2.5"
9.) Redline Wrasse Terminal Male - 3" (I may trade this guy off.. he is already attacking the Melanurusin the QT)
10.) Yellow Belly Blue Tang - 2.25"

I am thinking of picking up a Timor Wrasse to swap out the Redline, and am thinking of the Whitetail Bristletooth Tang.

I'm looking for a smaller whitetail tang, I found one listed at 2.75" to 3.75" but I think it will be on the upper end as I havent seen these guys come in small. Will the whitetail do okay with the stock list? I dont want him to be overly aggressive towards any of the tank mates, especially the rhomboids.


Overall, how do I look?

I had to remove a powdered bluetang that was 2.5" cuz he was too aggressive with the angels though he ignored the purple tang.

You may find the Red Line calms down when in the DT - it’s just a case of hierarchy I find.

What size tank is it (dimensions)?

Looks quite reasonable to me.

Its 180G, 64"L x 29"W x 22"H


So keep the redline and try it out in the DT?
That’s what I’d do!

We’ve got the same tank dimensions so I’d say you should be alright for both the new options and current ones.

I have a total of 22-23 fish in my tank currently. Albeit it’s mostly wrasse as you may expect.

Nice list, but you don'e like Halichoeres as much huh
I like that genus but I’ve not found many that truly pop out at me when I’m in the LFS.

I also added another 2 wrasse to that list today, I can’t even say I’m not addicted :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

Where do you find pink streaked wrasse I’ve been searching everywhere for them please help!!??
You have to wait - they’ll likely come in season again in August-October.
This is a very seasonal fish that comes in in 2 periods; August-October and February-Early May
