Larger Reef Safe Fish for a 120

[Johnseye]

I currently have a 120g DT with the following livestock in addition to coral. I'm planning on adding a Mandarin Dragonet and one more "larger reef safe fish". Looking for suggestions.

Currently livestock:
2 Ocellaris Clowns
2 Melanurus Wrasse
1 McCoskers Wrasse
1 Flame Angel
1 Multi Color Angel
1 Yellow Tang
1 Cleaner shrimp
1 Harlequin shrimp

Whitetailed bristletooth tang would get my vote

My concern with adding another Tang is conflict with the Yellow.

Any other options?

In the beginning, there will be some aggression but since the body shape is different, once it calms down, they'll be ok together.

Harlequin shrimp are small, a 120g tank is big. you will never see it yet alone find and feed it.

I have the Harlequin already. I see him in the rock work. He'll perch. Neat shrimp.

That list above is what I have already. Looking to add a larger fish, like a Tang and looking for suggestions.

Foxface, My yellow tang and fox face lo are best buddies

Bellus angelfish or any other genicanthus Angel. Or maybe a marine betta.

I second a bristletooth tang. Foxface get almost 2' long.

The largest species foxface can reach 9 inches, but not necessarily in aquaria unless there is unlimited algae to feed upon.

It really doesn't matter. The point is he shouldn't put one in a stocked 4' 120.

So you think a Foxface is too much considering what's in the tank now? What would you recommend?

I had a magnificent foxface for about a month. I saw growth of him in that month. He really like my acans the last week I had him. I took him back to the store for credit.

A Tomini tang would be nice.

A Tomini tang would be nice.

Sadly I had a Kole Tang until about a month ago. He mysteriously died after looking completely healthy.

A bristletooth of some sort would be nice if the Yellow gets along with him.

I'm thinking about either a Niger Trigger or Rabbitfish.

Lamarck's angel. planktivore and totally reef safe.

In terms of algae grazers I like motor blennies, However for a wow factor (provided you asses risk and make sure the shop has it in a coral tank for a month or so) I would get a regal Angelfish.

I just added a decorated rabbit fish a couple days ago. I'm very happy with it. Nice color and gets along fine with the other fish.
