    I currently have a 75 gallon tank with 2 clownfish and a LMB. I haven't added any fish in 5 months and I want to start slowly introducing fish, I would love some advice on the list I came up with?

    Flame Angel - hubby wants this one
    or
    Niger trigger - I want this one

    Royal Gramma
    small flasher wrasse

    Does this seem like too much? And when I decide which one I want between the angel and trigger, should I add them last? I know the trigger is iffy, but I really want to try one. So,fingers crossed if I pick it.

    Do you have a reef? Niger would be a no in this case and the Flame iffy. FOWLR then you could go with all most likely.

    Yeah, I have a reef tank. I have seen some success stories of them in a reef. I really want to try one.

    I tried niger trigger once and it ate my fiance's favorite fish a purple firefish the first day. They r very cool fish but equally as risky. Goodluck with what u decide

    I have always loved the Niger. Just not sure I want to risk it myself. I was told that the Hawaiian one is the most likely to get along in a reef tank.

    The angel is also iffy. It will most likely eat clams, worms, and rarely coral. So if you have or eventually want a clam, then I would skip it.

    should have known

    Luckily I have no interest in a clam. I guess I will just have to make sure I get the Hawaiian one.

    Should have known what?
