Hi Tony,
These guys are active swimmers & need room to roam. I don't think one would be very comfortable in your packed reef. It's hard to get them small, so your looking at a 6-7 inch fish.
If you do get one, hold out for the Australian version. Their colors are twice as bright as the normal Indonesian ones. They're worth the extra price, plus you have a better chance of it not being cyanide caught.
Thanks, Ed. That was my experience as well. I had one years ago in my 180 FOWLR that lived for 7 years before my tank got wiped out by my wife's cat

I have my eye's on an Australian one right now. It's about 5 inches, maybe a little less. I'm mainly worried about the smaller fish I have in there. The one I kept before was with all larger, aggressive fish. This time, it will be the biggest by a few inches. My last one was somewhat timid compared to the other fish.
