Looking for fish suggestions.

[itz frank]

I have a 130 5 ft (60x18x26") with only 8 fish in it.
- two black clowns
- swallowtail angel
- lawnmower Blenny
- Midas blenny
- two bengaii cardinals.
- purple fire fish

I'm looking to add a few larger fish and would like suggestions.

One fish I have to have is a scopas. I like the look and so does my wife.

Other options include single pyramid butterflies, two black cap basslets, and additional tangs. But really looking for larger center piece style ideas.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Tank is sps dominant reef.

Pyramid butterflies are super goofy! I had one for many years and loved it! It's definitely a fish I would keep again if I had a bigger tank. They're very friendly, reef safe as they are planktivores, and beautiful to watch. They'll come up to greet you whenever you approach them too. That's my vote based on your choices!

I would only do 1 tang in that tank. A Mimic tang or Kole/Tomini tang.

A one foot tang is going to be too cramped in a 5 foot tank. Considering the full size of the swallowtail you have, I'd only get one large fish so they aren't constantly in the way of each other, and then a few small to medium ones.

Out of the tangs I mentioned which one gets anywhere close to a foot?

I was talking about the scopas that the OP really wants. Your recommendations were fine.
