I have a 120 with the following fish:

Spotted Rabbit
Lavendar Tang
Scopas Tang
Diamond Goby
Flasher Wrasse
Solar Wrasse
Leapard Wrasse
Black Clown
Orange Clown
Midas

I want to add somthing new to the tanks but I just cant figure out something that would look good. Was really looking for a bigger fish as most of mine as smaller. Any suggestions?

Got any inverts? If not maybe a Harlequin tusk.

Genicanthus angels are nice too, can even get a few of them.

I would think so, depends on the temperament of your individuals. Shouldn't be a problem.

Look at Bellus angelfish - Female especially has nice colors or Sunburst Anthias (a shy but peaceful lovely fish).

Very pretty!! Appears to be pricy but I do love. Have to see if the LFS has any or can get one.

If you don't have a ton of coral or want to try one anyways, a few dwarf angels come to mind...flameback, flame, potters, coral beauty.

I have a ton of corals. I thought about getting a powder brown tang but my LFS said would have problems introducing it to the tank with the lavendar and scopas already in there

A bristletooth such as a Kole or Tomini should be fine with your existing tangs because they're from a different family. The bristletooths are in the Ctenochaetus family, Scopas is Zebrasoma, and the Lavender is Acanthurus. It's when you start adding members of the same family that you can run into trouble. That being said there are always exceptions both ways.

Got ya thanks for the info. I really dont want to take any chances i love my tank the way it is just want something new to look at. Would hate to add something in there that is going to tick everything off. I have had a Kole and a Tomini before. My tank caught ich and they all but my scopas died.
