For our finned friends we have:

Yellow Wrasse
Percula Clown
Blue-green Chromis x 4

Soon to be added to the family:

Al, I highly reccomend the Convict Tangs, they eat that slimy red cyano, and any other nuisance algae you can think of!

I had some cyano issues in the 125 when I first got them, they had red lips for a week! The yellow and naso don't even look at that stuff.

I dont know Joe. I have the pair of striated tangs in different tanks. but one is with the big yellow tang and they get along fine. the other is with the saddleback and 2 yellow gobies. no problem. very nice fish. not really sure what they are, this is the closest ID i could find based on picture.
http://www.fishbase.org/Photos/PicturesSummary.cfm?StartRow=1&ID=1262&what=species
I bought them at petco 2 years ago as a Misc. Tang. they were small, thin and very pale/transparent juveniles then with no color. but darkened up as they grew. now when they are happy and comfortable they are very dark. a nice color. almost black. definitely related to a kole tang. must be a subspecies or something. good algae eater.

they get many different types of tangs as MISC.? i bought one last week which seemed to be a chocolate tang, unusual, but it brought the ick home with it from their tank and died. I will try one again from another batch. or store. it started to look like this with the sky blue edge on its fins.

they sell odd juvenile tangs as misc. i just wish they get their ick under control. Mine had no signs when i brought it home, but 2 days later it was covered, just like the other fish in their tank. Im not good at medicating, so when i tried, it croaked. Probably didnt acclimate it well. I just quickly filled a 10 with half tank water and half new, added heater, biowheel and airstone and powerhead, but the clout seemed to be too much for it .
Any way i like oddball fish.

 

[a1amap]

You must have bought the one in the pic. Even the pic has ick.

 

[icy1155]

Anyone want a coral beauty angel? We got him with the 90 and decided to combine the tanks so he has to go soon...

 

[icy1155]

PS. I owe Joe my firstborn for helping move that tank.
