Flasher wrasse's are really nice too, but are more timid and stay smaller. If you are getting bigger fish, you would probably want to stay away from them.

Ill look into wrasse. I would just have to put a mesh screen on top.

Hawkfish is another very unique fish, if you don't have shrimps in there, definitely give them a thought.

Ill be going to J&L on sunday so ill see what damsels they have. Never thought of a shrimp though. Longnose hawkfish looks pretty cool but it says they can eat smaller fish.
