Reef safe

[Sirspeedy77]

Ok crew. We’re ready to add a show fish to this ecosystem. We have a 125 long 1/3 full of rock so lots of room to swim. Current inhabitants are 2 ocellaris clowns, lawnmower blenny, sand sifter goby a small six stripe wrasse and a purple and yellow wrasse. Forgot the name. I’ve got room for a fish that swims in the middle to upper half of tank and jumps out at you when it swims! Bright colors, reef safe for lps and sps corals. This will be the last fish added so it has to count! Any ideas? what are your show fish?

white tail bristle tooth tang?

Def a show stopper! Had to google that one lol. Very nice!
I nice fat healthy blue is a solid choice and reasonable on the pocket too!

The genus Genicanthus has a number of showstoppers worth considering, they are reef safe, non-aggressive, hardy, won't get too big. You can keep a pair or a group together and watch the interaction.
Think beyond tangs!

You have a chance at reef safe with regal, emperor or the majestic angels. They certainly are super nice in the tank.

I love wrasse, especially flasher and fairy wrasse. Six-line wrasse is such a curmudgeon. Without it, you can add a lot of colorful fish. See if you can remove him.
If you remove the Six-line, you can add a few of the following. All wrasse need tightly fit screen top. There are a numbers of them price from 20.00 to 2000.00 or more. I am sure seen some of these will really result in you getting wrasse fever.

Male Black Leopard, nuptial coloration. Need sand bed

Blue Flasher

Blue throat Fairy

China wrasse. Need sand bed

Ruby head Fairy

Eightline Flasher

Exquisite Fairy

McCosker Flasher. This is a very small male, color not fully developed. Full super-male is a lot more colorful.

Female Melanurus. Male is a lot more colorful. Sand bed needed

Meleagris Leopard. Sand bed needed

Naoko Fairy

Very early young male Diamond Flasher. One of the most beautiful fish there is. Look him up

Pintail Fairy

Carpenter Flasher

Potter Leopard, sand bed needed

These following fish can be add without removal of the Six-line
Watanabei angel, male

Female Watanabei

Of course no reef tank is fully stock without the Yellow Tang IMO.
