need suggestions

[Jarrett]

well now that my mystery wrasse died i am looking to add some more REEF SAFE fishes to my tank. i made a mistake and an impulse by and added a file fish which turned out to not be reef safe didnt learn from many peoples mistakes and listened to a LFS employee really bad idea. i am taking it slow so i wont be adding any fish right away but i really do want suggestions since my 75 gallon is lightly stocked with now only a hoevens wrasse, scooter blenny, lyre tail anthias and scooter blenny. i want to add more wrasses and i would like another anthias as well can anyone tell me if any wrasses or anthias will be compatible with what i have. also any other cool suggestions would be great as well

my personal favorite



Xanthichthys Auromarginatus-

Male Female

Xanthichthys Auromarginatus-Blue Throat Trigger
These triggers are reef safe and will get anywhere from 4?-10?, so a large sized reef is needed to house them. It should also have a lot of rocks for hiding space. As with any large fish, that requires a great deal of feeding, it will increase your bio-load. The biggest problem with some of these Triggers is that a lot of them aren?t good eaters, and with them not being aggressive to begin with, leads to some of them just wasting away. So care needs to be taken when getting one of these reef safe Triggers.

Can be somewhat aggressive and may eat inverts and small fish, so you need to be careful when placing on in your reef tank.

my tanks only 75 gallons i have always wanted a blue throat, but i dont want him to be unhappy and they really are reef safe? they wont go after any of my lps or anything.

which would be more peaceful in my 75 gallon of course i would get both as babys and give them to my friend down the block who has a 150 gallon when they get to big for mine. or do you think its not even worth the chance being that my tank may be to small even if their babys.

When I had mine I had a 150. I'm not sure of the tank requirements. I would say its fine but I'm really not sure. My blue throat was perfect didn't bother my pair of coral banded shrimp or anything else.

Fish are smart they know the cleaners are useful i think you would be ok. but either way i rather have a blue throat than cleaners anyway lol
