new fish recommendations

[scapes]

Hello,
I just combined a 55g/30g/35g hex full of LR/fish/corals into a 180g. It's a 180g w/ a 50g sump & 35g fuge, so total combined water is 265g. currently I have 3 fish and would like atleast one more if it's big or several smaller ones. These are the requirements:

1)reef safe
2)must co-exist w/ a royal gramma, Acanthurus nigricans (white cheek tang) & a Halechores Melanarus (melanarus wrasse male).
3)I DO NOT want anything that is going to grow 2' long soon or ever. this is my last and final upgrade.
4) I don't mind paying a little more for a really one nice pretty fish. something w/in reason. nothing that will cost thousands of $$'s.


I have alot of corals so I know much more about them. I don't really do fish and know much about them and fish compatibility. I would appreciate any ideas/recommendations!
thanks everyone

Sohal Tang,not sure if its reef safe though.

Sohals are reef safe but will out grow a 180. If this is your last tank, look for special fish that not everyone and their brother has. I’m pretty fortunate in that I work at a lfs one day a week where the owner has great connections and can pretty much get anything under the sun.

love your snoopy! he's my favorite.

since I"m not up on the diversities of fish, what would a fish that "not everyone and their brother has?"" I would like one, but I don't know what fish you would be referring about.
thanks for your help.

Well an example of stuff im looking at getting that not everyone has ... crosshatch trigger, unicorn tang(not uncommon but required by my wife ), powder blue/brown hybrid tang, pair of helfrchi fire fish, multicolor angel, possibly a magnificent foxface i dont have my list together for everything but that is what im thinking so far

Pair of Clowns? Black Saddlebacks or a Clarkii.
