Tank mate ideas

[kevtes13]

I have a 220 gallon established FOWLR aquarium that has a 10" snowflake eel, purple tang that is somewhat aggressive, regular Foxface, 7" Queen Angel, and Dwarf Flame angel. I want to add a few more fish but I'm having trouble deciding what to stock due to the potentially aggressive nature of this group of fish. Thoughts and suggestions welcome.
Thanks

What about a blue throat triggerfish?

I would get a bunch of smaller stuff. Chrysiptera genus damsels would be good. Or several wrasses.

Maroon Clowns
A nice school of anthias
Maybe a big school of black and white chromis....

Thanks for the suggestion. I haven't considered a triggerfish. I do like their personalities. What is your experience with fin nipping? That was something someone with more experience than I had told me could be a problem.

I had considered a bird wrasse or harlequin tusk

They good tank mates, they of course will eat some inverts but nothing big, they will not attack other fish.

Thank you. I was actually strongly considering a Maroon Yellow stripe Clown. I had one years ago and he was fun to own. I'll look into black and white chromis.... tank would look good with some movement from a schooling fish.

When I put together my FOWLRish tank, I'm absolutely going to have a harlequin tusk. I've heard they can be a bit timid, so I don't know if it would become a victim in your tank or not.

My thinking is that something small but schooling provides visual interest and safety in numbers. The B&W chromis are really striking in a group and inexpensive.

They would fit in with your crew.

For wrasses, I had in mind Halichoeres and the larger fairy wrasses. But maybe you want large fish only.
