3- anthias
2-tangs (purple/yellow)
2-clowns
2-bangaii cardinals
1-scott's fairy wrasse
2-flasher wrasse
1-scooter blenny

+misc inverts

I would like to add a Labout's Fairy Wrasse

i think you'd be fine from a biofiltration standpoint, but the Scott's may the laboutei.

I have one and it is a VERY passive fish IME.

Exactly. C. scottorum can be extremely aggressive.

They sure can. With a name like that, you'd grow up tough too.

To the OP: Assuming you have the normal bio-filtration; IMO, you have plenty of room. Not even a close call, add several fish that size, if you want.
