Next fish?

In my 72 reef, I have a fairy wrasse and 2 clowns. Just had to get rid of a bicolor angel that nipped everything!

I want to get something colorful. And that will actually swim. My clowns host the heater and only move when it's time to eat.

 

I would do anthias. Get a small school of them or a school of Blue/green Chromis.

 

A flasher wrasse would be a nice addition. What are your plans for fish? You could add a Kole Tang or bristletooth tang but those should be your last fish, so maybe a flasher then the tang?

 

I would consider one of the blennies from the genus meiacanthus (they swim, unlike some of the others that perch), another fairy wrasse of the same species of the one you already have, you may be able to do a small tang, maybe another angel (of a species less likely to nip than the bicolor), and if you don't want to add anything else, you might be able to do a couple anthias.

 

you could try a small tang such as a kole, tomnini or bristletooth tang. also anthias would be good. a good site to just browse around is liveaquaria.com

 

A couple firefish would be cool. IMO a reef tank is not complete without firefish.

 

If you want to do an angel get one from the Genicanthus species they are planktivores.

 

What angels are a part of that one?

 

The ones that say "Genicanthus" as their genus.

 

Careful here. Do NOT mix two male fairys of the same species. A male/female mix is fine, or multiple females, but your tank is not big enough for two males of the same species. If you want to do another wrasse, you'd be much better off doing a DIFFERENT species. Different species of fairys and flashers, for the most part, mix just fine together.
