I have a 125g (6’ long) mixed reef tank.
Currently I have the following fish/inverts.
1 Benggai Cardinal
2 Ocillaris Clowns
1 Fiji Damsel
1 Blue spotted watchman goby
4 Blue green chromis
1 diamond watchman goby (sand sifting)
1 Foxface
1 Lawnmower Blenny

1 Black long pun urchin
3 Scarlet cleaner shrimp
1 Pistol shrimp
Various snails

Lots of corals.

I was thinking about either :
juvenile yellow tang
Juvenile powder blue tang
Whip fin fairytale wrasse

Any input is appreciated!!!!! TIA!
 
For the tank size the Yellow Tang is a good choice.
 
Any of those fish should work. Powder blues can be a bit problematic for health but they are good when conditions are in the sweet spot. The tank is big enough for a powder blue but just.

Yellow tangs are pretty robust. Your tank size is fine for a yellow. Also, yellow tangs tend to be pretty gaunt in most fish stores. They fatten up nicely and their color gets more intense. They tend to be pretty peaceful also.
