I have a Red Sea reefer 350 and I want to finish stocking it. I currently have...

1 coral Beauty
1 fire fish
1 bang eye cardinal
1 six line (yes I know they can be a pain)
4 clowns 2 designer 2 regular
2 shrimp

I really want a tang I was thinking a key hole or a yellow tang.
Eventually a mandarin (I will take out the six line)
I also like puffers but I don’t want to worry about them eating my coral
I also want some odd fish that people normally don’t know about.
I would like to stay in the 10-50/80$ range

So what are some cool compatible fish. Any ideas?
Thanks,
-Ged D
 
Tanks a little small for them, but Anthias and when they grow just upgrade to a larger system! Win/win
 
You could get small tangs, they will eventually outgrow your tank. You need a bigger tank for the puffer fish, but if you're worried about them eating your coral, your coral beauty might already be doing that. Depending how long that 6 line has been in your tank he might run off the other fish. If your tank is mature enough and plentiful of pods you can do a mandarin no problem.
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine
