It seems like some of the smaller wrasses can go in a 55g or a 90g. I like the exquisite, the Scott's fairy wrasse or a Solon but all those seem to be for a recommended 90g. Since the footprint of a 75g is the same as a 90g, is there a specific reason why they need that 4" of height?
 
Scott's are mean

Get a yellow coris
Leopard
Possum
Mccoskers
 
my wrasse are all well behaved
Solon-fantastically coloured
6-line
blue streak cleaner
possum

Yeah I was thinking a possum too. Leopards may be a little hard to feed in my tank as I transferred my former 56g only in Sept. I did transfer all the live rock but I am not longer running a sump so keeping enough pods if the leopard does not get onto prepared food. I do feed a lot of frozen meaty food. I don't really want a red fish and definitely not a yellow fish as I have several already.

I would love a Solon. I have heard that 6 lines can be nasty so I am not willing to risk that. A possum is a definite possibility if I can find one. I also would enjoy a Christmas (even though its has red in it).
 
Leopard aren't that hard once they're healthy and a reef. I've had a few and they typically eat once established very well. The biggest issue in my opinion is getting them shipped and healthy to start with.
