I need some more pops of yellow. Currently only have a yellow wrasse, I don’t really count my Midas blenny because he’s more of a darker goldish skin tone I guess color lol

I already have one tang so yellow tang is out, and no rabbit fish. I was looking at the two spot hog fish, but I read that they are terrors on shrimp and cleanup crew, but also bullies to wrasse and I have a few wrasse.

In your opinion/experience what are some nice yellow colored fish that don’t get too big for an 80 gallon, that have good personalities?
Canary goby for sure. Really sweet fish, playful. They are the same color as a yellow tang without the headache and price tag.
Will that fight with my Midas blenny?

For my yellow pop - yellow dwarf angel, flagfin angel, a chocolate mimic tang that is unusually bright yellow vs dirty yellow.

Yellow coris are such gorgeous creatures. I get 2-3 at a time and let them pair up. Stunning.
