Stocking help...

[Calmwaters]

Good morning everyone! I need help with my stocking list. I have tried youtube and Google and I keep getting the same selection which isn't a lot of fish to choose from and I know there has got to be more. I want mostly peaceful reef safe fish that will work in a 125 gallon tank. I plan on doing a search in the forum as well but figured the more ideas I get the better. I know I need to add fish slowly but would like a list to give my LFS to see what he can order for me. I don't plan on getting all these fish just trying to get a rough list of what would work. My current stock list is as follows.

Yellow Tang
Orange Fin Tomini Tang
Lavender Tang
Tailspot blenny
Neon Cleaner Goby: Already have
Court Jester Goby
Dispar Anthias- Schooling Fish
Clownfish: Already have
Firefish: Already have
Lemon Goby: Already have
Sixline Wrasse: Already have
Halichoeres Marginatus
Cirrhilabrus Wrasse (Fairy Wrasse)
Paracheilinus Mccoskeri
Pseudojuloi

CUC:
Conch
Hermits crabs × 8
Emerald Crab
Pincushion urchin
A conch
Peppermint shrimp x 2
Nassarius Snail
Astrea Snail x 4

What type of reef tank are you looking for in specific, do you want more of a biotope or good solid list of fish,

From the list I would choose:

1) tailspot blenny
2) yellow jawfish
3) royal gramma
4) yellow tang
5) maybe tomini tang (not great with multiple tang success)
6) court jester goby
7) 3-5 disbar anthias

I like to do my stocking 1 fish for very five gallons though it depends on adult size of fish such as tangs. I would say this would be a great list

Thank you I am doing a mixed reef tank and it's 125 gallons.

I'd skip the sailfin tang - 125 gallons with that many tangs and other fish is pretty aggressive, and sailfins easily reach over a foot in length.

I edited the original list if you'd like to take a look.

I edited the original list if you'd like to take another look

that looks better. Also check out lyretail anthias as an option instead of disbar, I absolutely love the orange coloration. And please, go slow!

Thank you! And yes I will for sure go slow and each time I add fish I plan to add more Dr.Tims one and only just as an extra precaution.

And the lyretail anthias is stunning! Thank you for the suggestion!

If you can get a lavender tang that would be cool! Along with the mccosker wrasse and halichoeres! Maybe a creole wrasse would be fitting as well
