2 pylei fairy wrasses

2 port vila fairy wrasses

2 carpenter flasher wrasses

1 luddocks fairy wrasse

1 red fin fairy wrasse

2 dracula gobys

1 flathead anthias

2 lyretail anthias(1 changing)


Want to add the following:

3 female lyretail anthers

5 flame wrasses

2 hooded fairy wrasses

2 angelfish ( bellaus of Swallowtail) also open for suggestions

1 Blue assessor


I like the idea of small fish and wall to wall corals but I also enjoy the look of large fish. these are possible additions as well. what do you guys think? I know im pushing it but it is 200 + gallons.Please give me any feedback you can think of thanks

1 achillies tang

1 purple tang

1 rabbitfish

1 chocolate tang

1 magnificiant foxface

I like the sound of the smaller fish over the tangs. Flame wrasses would be really cool. On the angelfish, I would go with an African flameback.

the Centropyge genus is not reef safe. after doing more research I may go with 2 pairs of angels, bellus and swallowtails.

Centropyge angels are not all reef safe. There are definitely some to avoid like lemonpeels. But I wouldn't worry about a flameback especially in a SPS dominated tank. You should check out Copps tank. He is kind of an angelfish guru and never worries about sps.
