Fish recommendation

[CafeReef]

Ok everyone, looking for ideas. I am wanting to have my one "show" fish in my tank. I would LOVE a trigger, but sadly I have a 50 cube and I just wont be that guy

I am looking for recommendations. $$ wise, lets say less than $500. I would like something unique, reef friendly, vibrant and colorful, with a decent sized body on it (angel/tang shape for reference)

Current livestock:
OC clown pair, Royal Gramma, Diamond Goby, fire shrimp, skunk cleaner, then your typical CuC.

Thanks in advance. I've been through live aquaria numerous times and have yet to have something that really "jumps" out at me.

recommend a nice wrasse as a show fish for a small cube. Lineatus, or diamond pintail are awesome looking fish.

Thanks, I am not completely against the idea of a wrasse, just hoping to find something with a little more body girth, with having the basslet already I am hoping to find something less "dart"

Wrasse's do have amazing color varieties that is for certain.

any bigger fish will require a bigger tank

I tend to agree with the others, wrasses are probably one of the better choices for a 50 gallon. Even 50 is small for some of them, depending. A slight gamble in a reef, but you might be able to swing a joculator angel as they stay pretty small. Fairly cool/rare, but are also over the $500 mark.

Centropyge multicolor or potteri. You assume all liability of the angel in the reef, of course (;
