Ideas for fish in my tank... Has to be reef safe

Whats your thoughts

 

[mojo~]

Puffer, Lion fish, Clown trigger, Tiger shark, and a sting ray would be cool in there....

what do you have now?
maybe a small wrasse or a flame fin tang.

I have the little rosie goby from Coral Reef, your old pygmy angel, and a yellow tail damsel. Was thinking of a wrasse or two, or the yellow hog fish that klaus sells, then was thinking about adding the tiger shark

I have a personal favorite...... I love the radiant wrasses.......you would need a sand bed though and I have a penchant for a blue spotted jaw fish......these are two fish that will be in my tank.....

I think a school of angels would be pretty cool. Get about 7 of them.

I have thought about the radiant, mystery, or Xmas wrasse. Those 3 are my favorite. I would like to do a jaw fish, doesn't have to be the blue spot though. And one of the orange stripped gobies that Klaus gets in from time to time that are from africa I think he said.

I would like to add a couple of shrimp, probably cleaners or 1 coral banded. I reef star, and then possibly at the end which I have been thinking of a tang, or reef safe trigger - probably a pink tail if not a niger

I would go radiant wrasse Phil. Awsome fish I have had mine for about a year now and really enjoy him. Truth be told you don't even need a sand bed to keep them either. Klaus has one in his frag tank with no sand & I also kept mine for a while without a sandbed. I'm sure they enjoy the sandbed but I don't think it's a must have. If I where to go with a tang I would go Tomini tang for sure. Nice fish and they stay some what small. I think it would work out perfect for the 57. You can never go wrong with a couple anthias they are nice fish and are really nice to look at. I would go square anthias just because they are awsome fish! Those are my picks anyways good luck Phil let us know what you go with.

Well thank you Dr. Dolittle....LOL:fish1:

Corey, I didn't even think about the anthia's. Those would be awesome.

I know it's not a popular fish, but my 6-line wrasses work their butts off. They are cheap and keep your tank pest free. The only problem is that you can't have any other wrasses. They will win any fight. I know from experience.

As most of you know, I'm a huge tang fan. They keep the algae issues at a minimum. You will most likely have to supplement their diets with romaine or whatever.

Rob, I have a 4 line wrasse, cleaner wrasse, leopard wrasse, 2 candy hog wrasses, and 2 flame wrasses. I have them all in my small 40 right now with no issues. I feed pretty heavy though. I've noticed the less you feed, the more most fish will fight.

My 6 line was the meanest fish in my tank......

 

[Fireworm]

I thought about the 8 line, as Brian out at broadway has had one for a bit, or I think it was there that I saw it, but I heard they are meaner than a 6 line

What are you serious? You are thinking about a tang. Why the heck havent you went out to Uncle Bills and bought that powder brown?????? If I had more room for another tang I would have bought it!!!!!! Where else are you going to find a powder brown that looks like that.
