-fridmani dottyback

Fish I would like to add over time:
-yellow watchman goby
-lawnmower blennie
-unchosen fairy wrasse
-single bartlett's anthias
-mated pair of ocellaris clowns
-yellow tang

Any feedback is appreciated!

You could have like 15 to 17 fish, you better get busy.

I think that depending on the dimensions of your tank, you should be able to keep all of those together. If your tank is less than 4 feet long, you should hold off on the yellow tang.

The only possible problem I see is the pseudo. It will most likely bully a fairy wrasse and other peaceful species.

Make sure you cover your tank really well, or you will find the anthias and wrasses on othe floor someday.

The Lined Chromis is intimidated by both the coris wrasse and fridmani and he was the first in the tank.
My dimensions are in my first post. 30x30x24.

When I said pseudo, I meant the pseudochromis fridmani.

What species do you mean by lined chromis?

With those dimensions, I would definately not get a yellow tang.

I love lined chromis -- they are the spitting image of the Vanderbilt's chromis. Such great little fish.

I am thinking of a 93 gallon cube for my next tank. What about a Kole tang?

IMO that tank isn't long enough for any tang. You have a very nice stock list otherwise. Tangs are great but when they don't have proper room they will be stressed and prone to illness. Add a few small fish and you'll be set.

If you scape the tank well, it is only just short of four foot if you think of it as a diamond shape!
I have a very similar tank im still setting up and contemplating the list of. Mines 34x34x26 I am personally in 2 minds regarding the small tangs. A safe butterfly or pygmy angel would be a nice alternative if you decide against the tang.

I have had zero luck with pygmy angels and corals and clams in the past.
