Hello all, was looking for some recommendations to stock my 150g reef.Im looking for a tang gang and fish that will help keep the tank clean. Schooling fish except cardinals would be cool too/Below is the fish currently in tank.

Foxface, Rabbitfish, trigger fish, (2) naked clown fish, (2) storm fish, sailfin, and tomini tang

Can you also let me knowif a flamehawk can go in. I plan on getting a goby but waiting to tank mature a bit
 
What's a storm fish? triggerfish are meany going to be hard adding new fish. I recommend adding a wrasse. Earmuff wrasse or radiant wrasse are my favorites.

I see triggers and sailfin as uninviting occupants. Kole tang will help with algae but has a slim chance of acceptance
Flame hawk can cohabitate if triggers are not jerks- What type of triggers?

Having had nigers- agree, docile and flame hawk will eat any ornamental shrimp . My cleaner crew did well with both nigers and flame hawk- just not shrimp

My yellow is the best cleaner I’ve ever owned.
Does nothing but swim and peck.

Sailfin, Tomini, Foxface plusnone will likely keep algae away pretty well. You could add a second Zebrasoma but you may have agression issues at some point. My Convit tang (Acanthurus) is a workhorse on algae. People who have one will most all agree. Wrasse will be beneficial in hunting pests all day long if you want a fish with utility.
 
Purple psuedo chromis are good. Bold and bright purple. Royal gramma a good one too. I got a melanurus wrasse he is cool but messy

No. Its one of the most peaceful tangs from what I have heard. Mine has never chased anything. Minds his own business picking at the rocks all day.
