Stocking options

I want more fish and i want to see what and what not ppl think would look good. I have a 75g reef tank with a hippo tang, a melanuras wrass, a tomatoe clown pair, and a blue green chromis. want at least 2 more chromis and then 2-3 aditional fish spiecies thanks for your opinions :bigsmile:

That hippo tang will outgrow a 75g tank.

Fairy and flasher wrasses make nice additions, you can also add chromis (you listed them but there are MUCH better ones than blue green), cardinals, etc.

What do you like or what are you looking for?

idk id love a angel of some kind but want clams eventualy, wouldnt the wrasses fight? im game for any fish suggestions

Lamarck, Bellus, Wantanabe angels tend to be reef safe. as mentioned cardinalfish can be nice additions.

ya all cardinals exept for the spotted ones look like decent fish. and the bellus angel is very beautiful, how reef safe are they?

bump for after noon

i think the blue and yellow damsels and dominoes are sick for reef safe and cheap additions. dottybacks or grammas could add some nice coloration.

Ya i think im gonna get a royal gramma for sure, thinking about a type of cardinal. what are every ones oppinions on anthia will they fight with any of the fish i currently have?

bellus are pretty reef safe, not really known to be coral nippers.
anthias are good additions. my borbonius can be a bit aggressive from time to time, mainly towards any new additions. he did not start off that way, but as he has grown so as his temper. He hasn't killed anyone though. majority of anthias are peaceful, some can require more attention though as far as feeding goes.
