Adding fish, any ideas?

[chipchip]

Hi all

Ive got a 180g tank mixed reef, mostly LPS and Montiporas.
Current stock is: majestic angel, tomini tang, moorish idol, longnose hawkfish, 2 zoramias, 1 purple dottyback, 1 multibar angel, 1 diamond tail and a green filefish plus 2 chromis..

Any ideas what Fish I can add?

I do not want more wrasses in there because I have a wrasse tank in my office.

cheers,
steven

thanks for the ideas dudes.. i forgot to mention my pair of red mandarins in the tank
sometimes I forget em.

What do you think, is it possible to add a group of 5 dispar anthias?
My LFS has a group and they are in their tank for a year now! Nobody bought them yet and they eat everything! Yes, they eat pellets

Or maybe a bigger wrasse like a melanurus or something?

I think the anthias would be fine. I would likely put a few pajama cardinals. I like them although they are very common.

Personally I would stay away from melanarus wrasses because they tend to eat shrimp.


Have you considered a Xanthichthys trigger like a blue-throat or Sargassum?

I love triggers! but I think my tank is too small for any trigger as they swim alot..
I would rly love a trigger and I def. want some in the future..

Which anthias is the hardiest? I mean, if someone shows some aggression towards them, which anthias can handle this the best? barletts, as they are kind of aggressive too?

Those dispar would be nice if they've had them that long. Mine hang out together all the time. Bartletts tend to bicker a lot, sometimes kill each other off.

I am a big fan of dispars, they are hardy, peaceful, stay close to each other, and watching a male display to his harem/rivals is awesome.
