So i have a 40g tank with 80g of volume total. I have the norm, 2 clowns, bangai, 6 line, and i want some more out of the ordinary, pricier fish to add to the tank.
I was wondering if you guys have any suggestions that would fit the tank nicely.

Nice, but i will not be able to light acclimate it, and i kindof wanted to stay away from angels.
Any other suggestions

What about a Peppermint Hogfish? Also, with a 40 gallon tank, I would be hesitant in adding any delicate/timid fish. With that Sixline Wrasse, you will have problems. (JMO)

The hogfish is an awesome fish. My guy is always cruising the tank. As far as the Sixline Wrasse, they become very aggressive over time. I am not sure when your wrasse was added to your current setup, but over time, they become very territorial. Any fish that is now added to this setup, will have to be strong enough to put up with the Sixline. This is has been my experience with the Sixline. I just wanted to share my experience. I hope this helps. :)
