    I think a puffer would be a cool choice also.

    That fish in your last post is awesome looking!

    That was one of the first fishes I was going to suggest to you, but they get 2' long and need 360 gallons.

    Here's some other cool/unusual fish:

    do you know how well hogfish do together? Concerned as i really want a spanish or cuban

    I love the last two wrasse but they are similar to the banana and I don;t want tail shredding (if possible)

    I would only pick one hogfish just to be safe.

    My bad about the wrasses, I forgot you wanted a banana wrasse.

    FWIW, male banana wrasses (Thalassoma lutescens) are about as mean as anything gets...I had a really nasty specimen that I ended up getting rid of.
