180 stocking ideas

[PirateToast]

Hi all, I'm 7 fish into my tank and looking for some stocking ideas. Its a 180 gallon reef tank. So far I have:

- magnificent foxface
- diamond goby
- matted filefish
- longnose hawkfish
- lyretail anthias
- mystery wrasse
- yellow coris wrasse

Any idea on what to add? I want to go as peaceful as possible. No tangs for now, maybe someday.

Assuming your Mystery Wrasse won't prevent new additions, I would suggest some Fairy and/or Flasher Wrasses. You seem to be lacking column swimmers, so that is what I would be looking to add.

How about a butterfly? Or more anthias. BLenny, clown pair

Large angel or two? Some butterflies too

I agree with some wrasse options, I like all the movement they provide in mine. Also I really my bellus angel.

Hmm, so here's some feedback on the ideas I've heard:

• Wrasses - I'm very hesitant to do this. Mysteries are pretty territorial. I might consider a leopard wrasse at some point.
• Butterflies/Angels - Maybe. I do want to get two tangs at the very end, not sure on the compatibility there?
• Anthias - Yeah, this makes sense, just waiting until I find a few more.
• Blenny - Yep, I'd definitely like to do this. They're great community fish.
• Clowns - I'm torn. They're a staple, but I've never found them very interesting.

Any other ideas?
