My 4' 120 gallon has been fallow for a long time and is going through a reboot. It will now be a mixed reef, with a lot of LPS and fish. I have a small pair of midnight clowns and a midas blenny going through httm right now. There are various cuc in the tank including a 5+ year old sand sifting star.

I don't have a specific stocking list set, but I definitely have wants. If I can do multiples of any of these, that would be preferred. Fish I know I want:

Tang - one or more of the smaller species

Dwarf angel - would love to get a trio

Pistol shrimp Gobie combo.

Firefish/dartfish

Wrasse - maybe multiple

I am looking for suggestions. Should I add anything to my list above? What should I add after my clowns and blenny get done with httm and observation?

I think that will be a lot of fish for that tank. Maybe think of a just trio of wrasses. Flasher ect.... They swim in the open and are very colorful. Tank must have a cover.
 
I’d say you’d be good to add a yellow tang and a smaller bristletooth tang. Plenty of cool wrasse options to choose from.
