One last fish

I have a 55 gallon reef. I have a coral beauty, 2 occellaris clowns, lawnmowwer blenny, and a yellow tail damsel. I want a yellow tang and one other fish except i have no clue. I am thinking a wrasse, a jawfish or a butterfly. I need some help and quick because i have to order soon

 

A flasher wrasse would be perfect. Maybe a Carpenter or McCoskers? I'm not sure how well yellow tangs do in a 55. It's debatable. I say if you practice good tank husbandry And can meet its needs, go for it! But get a small one. It may need to be rehomed once it gets big though.

 

I really like mccoskers, what do they eat flake,nori,ect...

 

Perhaps think about a Royal Gramma, or Fire fish. A nice Wrasse would work, Chalk Bass, Gold Assessor Basslet.

I think that any Tang or Butterfly would be too cramped in a 55 gallon.

 

My McCosker's eats flakes, pellets and frozen foods. I haven't tried nori though. What about getting a flame angel. Those are beautiful fish.

 

55 is really the bare minimum for a yellow tang IMO, i wanted one for my 50 gallon and for the fish sake...well...I UPGRADED!!! (muwahhaha) in terms of wrasse i have a 6 line that i think is pretty cool how he slaloms through my rock work. also if i may, one last fish is really a good idea. to keep the water stable and reduce (some what) the upkeep of your tank its best to have fewer fish than 2 many, but thats my 2 cents.

 

Ok i thing i am going with a yellow tang and a mccoskers wrasse

 

I also plan on upgrading to 125 around christmas

 

No problem. Just get a really small YT, like 3".

 

Yeah im ordering through my lfs so im getting smalest possible
