What fish should I add?

[btweymouth1s]

Looking at adding another fish, but not quite sure what to get. Looking for something colorful and active.

Here's what I'm working with:

75 gallon tank

Blue hippo
Pajama cardinal
2 green chromies
coral beauty
lawnmower blenny

many snails/crabs
mostly softies and lps

Recommendations?

First one would be to rehome the hippo, a 75g is far too small for this fish. Look into some wrasse or anthias, I wouldn't add any fish until you rehome your tang

Unless it's a little hippo he can have it for a little

This is a bad idea and is NEVER recommended. Tiny fish quickly become big fish with the right husbandry and housing, and any fish that isn't growing just means it's stressed and unhealthy. People rarely upgrade and with a hippo a 220g is the minimum it should be kept in. The jump from a 75g to a 220g is rarely accomplished by those who say that's what they are going to do and the amount of money that is involved in a tank jump that big is substantially more than the 75g was.

Thoughts on a pink wrasse?

Which kind there are pink streaked, pink margin etc.

I'll take feedback on thoughts for any type of pink wrasse. Was thinking about a wrasse and like the look of most of the different pink types

We'll pink stripes would be good because they are not quite as aggressive as the mystery and six line wrasses, I also love the pink margins.
