Won’t be adding fish for about a week or two while everything and everyone settles in but, I’m looking for some stocking suggestions for the new 75!

Current stock:

x1 Fiji blue devil damselfish (she’s a model citizen. Didn’t attack anyone in the 10GAL while working)

x2 clownfish (mocha storm and normal ocellaris)

x1 Midas blenny

x1 orange firefish

x1 green chromis

x1 melanurus wrasse

Definitely want a tang and some other utilitarian fish to help when algae strikes inevitably but also want some active and colorful swimmers! Any suggestions appreciated!

if you must have a tang go with a smaller bristle tooth .

Lawnmower blennies are good algae eaters with tons of personality .

But the best algae eaters are urchins

I was thinking a blue eye kole tang and maybe picking up a pincushion urchin again. I had some lobophora algae and it gobbled that right up.

Aren’t leopard wrasse hard to keep? I love lyretails so they’re definitely on the list and same with the RG. Are flame hawk fish decent fish?
Hard to say. The coloration/patternnis just stunning, though. Flame hawkfish have such wonderful personalities.
