Fish Suggestions for my tank

[Freshtosalt]

Good Morning! I have a 225 gallon reef tank that has been up and running for over a year and a half. I am wanting to add some more fish to the aquarium, so I'm looking for some suggestions.

Here's all the info:
Tank Size - 72x26x24
180 gallon in display with 45 gallon Sump

pH - 8.2-8.3
dkh - 8.4 ( Hanna Checker0
Calcium - 420 (Hanna)
Magnesium - 1350 (Red Sea)
Nitrates - 7-9 ppm (Hanna Checker)
Phosphates - 0.01-0.03 (Hanna)
Salinity - 35ppt (Apex)
Temp - 78-79 (Apex)

Red Sea Gyre Wave Makers x 2
Sicce Powerheads x 2

AI Hydra 32's x 4

Weekly 10% Water Change

It's a Bare Bottom Tank, for easier maintenance, so obviously, no sand dwellers please. About 20 corals so far, all torches, hammers, and frogspawn.
Current Fish in the tank:

Yellow Tang
Tomini Tang
Blue Hippo Tang
Clownfish - 2
Pajama Cardinals - 5

Everyone has been in the tank for over a year and doing well. It's a big tank so I'd like to add more fish, but not sure what to add from here. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you and happy reefing!

Check out a one spot foxface, it’s my favourite fish I own

 

[AZReef13]

With your coral most large Angels out of Question except Wantanabei Angels. Nice pair. Most dwarf angels, copperband maybe a Naso. Flasher wrasse.

 

[N1tew0lf1212]

Orange shoulder tang or lieutenant tang. Foxface are some good options

 

[Tcook]

I like the watanabe suggestion. Also a bellus angel. Maybe 6-7 lyretail anthias.

Adding a couple of different fairy wrasses would be a cool. If selected thoughtfully, different species of fairy wrasses can be happy and healthy and coexist.

Lots of color, and very active swimmers.

You have an overall quiet tank with the yellow tang and hippo may be occasionally a jerk but quickly subside.
The question would be - if you want to add more tangs, or schooling fish like anthias or angels such as dwarf - What is your goal and how much coral if any do you have as some potential fish can destroy your coral

Thank you everyone for the suggestions! I'll definitely have to look into a Foxface and wrasses, and look up the Wantanabei Angel, because I've never heard of that one.

Hi, as far as coral, I've got about 20 in there now, all torches, hammers, and frogspawn. They're the ones I like best because I like the movement of them, so I plan on sticking with those corals and just adding a lot more as time goes on. I don't know if I want more tangs or a school or something...or both, haha. Its hard to make decisions when there's a lot of options!

The orange shoulder is awesome and very lovable ask @Miami Reef lol....love mine and its personality is awesome

You have other tangs that will be compatible as well as wrasses, pyramid butterflies, flame angel, watchmen gobies, and cardinals as examples

Watanabe female

 

[AZReef13]

I forgot about hawkfish, I like the Flame Hawk, Marine Betta, and Basslets/ Assessors

 

[sc50964]

I like the watanabe suggestion. Also a bellus angel. Maybe 6-7 lyretail anthias.

So tough to QT male watanabei or a pair tho

 

[sc50964]

Some reef safe wrasse for color??? Or dwarf angels are super cool too, usually dont bother coral from the ones Ive had and the other reefers in my area

 

[i cant think]

Definitely get yourself some wrasses, here’s a few I’ve kept over the last few years;
