help me "fill out" my fish selection, please

[mayjong]

So-wife wants to add some fish to the 150. It's a mixed reef, with sps,lps,clams.
Current denizens are-
1 Red cleaner shrimp
1 Sailfin tang
1 Lawnmower blenny
1 Tomato clown (pretty docile since removing nem)
1 Neon dottyback (slight bully, o-k once fish "œsettle in")
2 blue-green chromis
2 pajama cardinals

Of course she wants color, so I was thinking "“
Pacific tang
Yellow tang
Yellow pyramid butterfly (is this safe?)
Swallowtail angelfish
Some sort of fairy wrasse (any suggestions/easiest care?)
2-4 anthias (suggestions on type/easiest care?)
2 more pajama cardinals (I love "˜em!)
1 mandarinfish

Obviously, I know I can't add all of these fish; this is just my "œshort list"
Any suggestions/advice/experience would be cool.
Whaddya' think?
Thanks!

What is a pacific tang? There are lots of tangs in the pacific....

Yellow pyramid butterflyfish would be a great choice!! Get a group maybe like three or so and I think you will really enjoy them, with maybe some anthias and fairy wrasses.

sorry , blue tang (Dori)

Blue tang will get very big, with a sailfin already in the tank I would skip the blue tang; I agree with pyramid butterflyfish, it would be a nice addition.

in a group? 2-3?
thanks!

would it be too much to add 2-3 lyretail anthais , and 2-3 p-mid butterflys?

Update-

Kinda funny, went to look at fish with the wife. Fickle creature that she is, we ended getting a Foxface Rabbitfish, 4 firefish and a golden wrass.
None of which were on her wish list! I think that will fill out the tank nicely, they are all resting comfortably in quarantine, all eating well…

Ah, FOUR firefish, long term will become at most 2 firefish or possibly only 1. As adults they only like their mates.

blue spot jawfish. shell love it. my girlfriend loves mine so much that she talks to it when it looks at her.

thanks on the firefish tip-
i was hoping they would be o-k in a 150. if nothing else, i hope i end up with a male/female combo...

I have a trio of Solar Fairy Wrasses and a Trio of Lubbocki Fairy Wrasses in my 120 and they are doing great and swim all over with each other and in just their groups.

Well, the odds should be in your favor. In the short term, there should be no problem, however.
