Hey everyone.

I am building out my 45 gallon cube (w/15 gallon sump). Tank has been running for a few months now, and I am looking at filling out my fisher before I start adding more coral (have a few zoas at the moment).

Currently I have:
2 Clownfish
Yellow Watchman Gobby w/Pistol Shrimp
Bi-Color Blenny
(plan on getting soon) Royal Gramma
Fire Shrimp

What else can I comfortably fit in the tank, planning on softies/zoas/LPS. I have good rock work with plenty of room and holes, plus a decent protein skimmer for nutrient export.

I was considering the following.
Some fink of angel, cherub or bi-color. Would any other types work? Are flame angels/flameback/coral beauties too big?
Pair of bangai cardinals. Not crazy about these guys based entirley on looks but I have read good things about them.
What else could i consider without over stocking?

Thanks!
 
cherub would look nice
pink streak wrasse?

if you wanna go ham candy basslet
Thanks. I was wary of wrasse because of no lid. I thought I had put that in my original post but looking back I left that out. And after looking at that candy basslet, its beautiful but god that price...
