Fish suggestions for FOWLR
Hey everyone, I would love to a few more fish to my 120 fowlr (5 feet long). I think a small group of Anthias would be pretty but I know they require really frequent feedings. Or maybe some fairy wrasse? Any ideas?

A great alternative to a school of anthias is a harem of Royal Grammas, or Orchid Dottybacks. These fish all start as females, with the largest one in a group turning into a male. So if you start with four smaller ones and one larger one, you pretty much get an instant harem. Natural harem social behavior is a blast to watch, like a good soap opera!
