What type of fish should I get??

[vietcu]

I have a 75 with a 40g sump, roughly 100+ pounds of Lr. Here is a list of fish that I have so far in my tank.

2 oscallaris clowns (one true one false).
2 chromis
1 black and white damsel
1 yellow tang
1 sixline wrasse
1 lawnmower blenny.

Everyone is fine in the tank, except the black and white is constantly chasing my chromis around. Once in a while it would go after my smaller oscallaris, only not so aggressive. The black and white damsel is only about 2 inches. If I get anything larger than it into the tank, it can't intimidate the new fish. My question is I would like to get maybe 1 or 2 more fish for my tank. Just don't really know what to get for my final fish. Do you guys have any suggestions?

Forgot to mention that my tank is a reef tank. I am leaning towards another tang, some type of angel fish, or a foxface. Would also like to stay under the $100 range for this new fish or 2.

a Yashi goby would be cool. I'd 86 that black and white though. nasty lil cusses

check into some Gobies ,,several kinds out there and some of them are WAY cool. Any shrimp Gobie with Pistol shrimps are a cool relationship , heck for a hundred bucks you could get a few nice ones\w shrimp too ,,,,,, Rainford , Hector , yellows , Yasha to name a few, you will need a good cover on your tank with Gobies , some jump & some dont , i have several of them and they never leave bottom of my tank. Greg @ Aquatic tech has a nice mix of then last time i was there ,,, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCC7XxRC4Iw

That link was pretty cool, but I am kind of leaning towards larger fishes. Anything to please the wife, she is funding my tank . She's the boss in my house so anything to keep her off my back. Something that is not to big for a 75 would be a nice addition.

i would go with a hippo tang or powder plue tang or a copper band

 

[Milkman78]

but your yollow tang may bully a new tang because first tang in tank is the boss over new tangs

 

[Murphs205]

some of them can grow big too , i have a blue spot that is big around as a quarter and 5 inches long and his colors are off the hook nice ,,
Copper band is a nice choice as well ,,BE CAREFUL of tangs ...some folks have them for years with zero issues , some have health issues right off the bat ,, and marine ich blows, it can wipe out a tank
powder blues are a nice fish buttttttt they get sick alot . very touchy fish they are ,,,,,

My 2 cents, ditch the damsel. The white and black (either 3 stripe or 4 stripe) tends to be a VERY aggressive species. It will be fine until it starts to reach maturity ~2.5-3" and then there is a 99.9% chance it will terrorize your tank.

Personally, I would get it out now before the tank grows in and its more difficult to remove.

 

[Murphs205]

The Damsel has to go , they can reek havoc when they get a bit bigger.

I think a foxface would be a nice addition. Have a similar stocking list to yours in 90 gallon and my foxface and yellow tang get along well and seem to stick together. If you were wanting another tang soemthing like a kole or tomini would be nice too.

neon gobys are cool hippo tang foxface or a copper banded butterfly

If my wife wants big, more of a reason for me to upgrade once the tangs get too big for the 75 . Thanks everyone for their replies, most of which seem to be what I would like to get in the future. As far as the damsel goes, I want him out but easier said than done. I think the only to get that thing out of my tank now is to remove all the rocks first, unless anyone have an idea of how to get it out. I am thinking of a make shift harpoon, but haven't figured a way to make a small one yet .

That sounds like a plan!!I know people that have fished their damsels out with a string and hook or maybe a trap.
