suggestions for more small / medium fish in large tank

[jtf74]

Looking for some ideas for a few new additions not more than $50 typical. No tangs. Considering blenny (midas, canary, forktail) I do have BT anemones and zoas I want to keep. Haven't had luck with firefish for some reason.

Tank is 300 gallon w/
hippo tang
pair of maroons (not aggressive)
gramma
copperband
flame and bicolor angel (both semi agressive)
striped goby
lemon chromis
electric blue damsel (peaceful)

Anthias
Heniocus butterfly
Pyramid butterfly
Fire fish goby

Do you have SPS or LPS? If not, I'd get a nice butterfly like a Peppered Butterfly, Bennetti Butterfly, or something like that...not sure what they cost over there though...

Harlequin Bass are really cool— usually listed under “miscellaneous” fish on some sites.

Wrasse and anthias. Cardinals

A ton of tiny gobies! My favorites are neon gobies, redhead gobies, and clown gobies. Flametail blennies are also cool. Also wrasses!

 

[polyppal]

get you a school of lyretail anthias

No tangs hub? I'd add some fish like cardinals. Silver monos.
Hawkfish would be a good choice maybe.

How about clownfish? The classic!

Go for Wrasses, some break the bank but all are worth it!
Personal favourites of mine are;
- Pseudojuloides atavai
- Cirrhilabrus roseafascia
- Cirrhilabrus naokoae
- Paracheilinus atennuatus
- Paracheilinus cyaneus

Thanks. I've looked at many wrasses but can never decide. Nice to narrow it down some.

I like those but know they are perchers and afraid my flame might bother it . Are they bold enough to be in there?

Had this in my cart order for a while actually. I like their activeness.

they are one of those fish that is 10x more beautiful in life vs images online. In your large tank size they would do nicely

Oh right I realize now it’s the maroons lol. I wasn’t thinking.

I love my sand shifting goby!
