Last fish to add to my 50g, any ideas? :)

[Reef_at_Sea]

Hello,

Currently i have 2 clownfish, a sailfin/algae blenny, a leuxo wrasse & a amblygobius linki in my tank.
i'm planning to add a royal gramma some time later on.
But i would like to add 1 more fish after that.

i'm looking for an active swimmer that shows itself alot.
My tank is mixed with LPS & soft corals.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

A dwarf angelfish would be a good addition.

I have been thinking about it, but there are 2 negatives.
They are pushing the limits when it comes to size for my 50g & they aren't really a guarantee to be reef safe.

Don't let the tang police read this!

There is a risk of nipping, but the chances of it nipping are really low, especially if you get a species of DA that isn’t as prone to nipping as other DA’s like a coral beauty or a flame angel, but i understand your concern. your tank size fine. I had coral beauty and a flame angel in 29 gallon for a while and they were fine.

Yeah, i'm talking with my supplier and i think i'm going for a coral beauty.
Can't wait! hehe

coral beauty and flame angel aren't always reef safe, one day they went rogue and killed my maxima and picked on some softies. As someone who was dead sure about angelfish I've learned to like tangs

I understand, but a tang in a 50g tank isn’t really ethical
