Hey all,

In a 55 gallon aquarium would the following fish be fine?

One spot foxface
Royal Gramma
2 ocellaris clowns
1-2 wrasses
 
I have a Fox Face in a 45 gallon, and the fish is going to be re-homed soon. Anything less than 70 is too small, a hundred gallon and up would be ideal.
My Fox Face has gotten huge, it's hard to work in the tank because FF are skiddish and you risk getting stung when they go into panic mode.

Great fish, active and colorful and good algae eaters but they get huge, and fat if fed properly.

The rest of the fish list appears fine but different wrasses types have different min tank recommendations.

The clows, foxface, and gramma all occupy different areas of the tank in a way and shouldn't be an issue together especially with the right LR set up. The wrasses would really depend, my only word of warning is maybe avoiding sixlines. They can be relentless jerks to the other inhabitants in the reef despite how majestic they look zipping in and out of the live rock formations.

I agree with this, some type of fairy wrasse would be cool!
