I've got a current stocking list of 1 Bangaii Cardinal, 2 Oscellaris Clowns, 1 Purple Firefish, 1 Algae Blenny, 1 Green Chromis, 1 Midas Blenny and 1 Royal Gramma.

I plan on adding a pair of Mandarins, along with a Yasha Goby/Pistol Shrimp and a Naoko Wrasse.

Any other suggestions on small reef safe guys to add? I've pretty much given up on Tangs/high end stuff.

Edit* this is in a 75g display
 
Not sure about 2 mandarins. I read mixed things. One, of course, totally fine.
 
The two mandarins are fine as long as its a male and a female! Also make sure youre dosing/cultivating pods (whichever you chose) to make sure they have lots to eat!

I plan on buying them as a designated pair, I've also got a 10 gallon copepod culture I've had running for a while

Perfect! Might want to ask @Slocke and @i cant think about the wrasse (if it would compete with the dragonets for food)

I would buy them as a designated pair once I get them, rather than accidently getting two males or females

I'm sure there would be some competition but with constant harvesting from a 10 gallon culture I'm sure I would be able to support all of the fish. I have seen a few of the zebra darts around. Not sure if I'll get one or not. I really like the scissortails
