Fish suggestion
Hey guys I need help with completing my fish list!
So far I have 1 yellow tang, 2 clowns, 1sleeper goby, 1cleaner wrasse, 25 mixed reef hermits, 10 trochus snails, 5 mexican turbo snails 1 cleaner shrimp. I have corals. 150 gal + 45 gal sump/refuge 6ft x 18" x 30" looking for something really nice and on the larger side - happy full grown in a 150 gallon. I love the bellus angel but could never find him.. What do you think would add some character to my aquarium... it feels a little empty |

Do you consider yourself an expert,abezr? I like my Coral Beauty,but they can be hit or miss with soft corals.

One of the many variants of blennys are always good for injecting personality to a tank.

any of the larger angels would be great. maybe a butterfly fish if your up to the challenge. i'm not sure if they would do okay with the tang or not.

A Heniocus Butterfly is similar to a Moorish Idol in looks and a lot easier to keep in a reef. Won't eat all your shrimp.
 There are also some tank-bred Batfish out now that are pretty peaceful and fine for a reef. Jeff |

Far from an expert, ive been in the hobby for 5 months and have been trying to do everything right from the beginning and so far its paying off, a lot of thanks to reefcentral and it's members. So when I ask a question its so that I may take the tips and make the right decision.
