Fish Addition Suggestion?

[HaZRaTTy]

Hey,

So I have cleared a few fish out of the reef and re scaped and arranged all the coral and have taken out approx 40lbs of LR. Its time to fill all that extra swimming space with a fish or two.

I would like your guys suggestions, I'm looking for fish with character that are docile and have a personality.

Stock thus far:

Yellow Tang
Scopas
Bi Coloured Blenny
Mysteri Wrasse
Yellow Watchmen Goby
3 Blue reef chromis
2 Clown Fish.

Tank is 120G Reef

Not really interested in Regal tangs, or anything HUGE. I will be setting up a 200G in the next 2-5 months so anything thats suitable in a 200G will be considered.

Get a smaller Blue Throat Trigger! You can transfer him into your bigger tank later on. I love the way they swim

Do you have one? How much of a pain is it to feed it and what are you feeding yours. Also do you find it feeling rather destructive in regards to your rockwork?

I have thought about a blue throat but I wanted input from current parents.

I have a blue throat trigger and love him......he eats like a pig, nori, frozen brine, mytys shrimp what ever I feed. I love the way they move around and has a great personality.

NO not at all, doesn't even think about it

You can read minds

Or have you threatened him?

Thanks for the input Its nice to see the addition to a fish I was pondering about 3 months ago. I talked myself out of it but time to do research!

Haha oops !! I forgot to add I have a snowflake eel..

I would say get one you will love it like I do and if you can find a mated pair I would go with that for sure!!!!!!!

I would not recommend a blue throat trigger. They're really cool fish, I have one in fact. But I think they're too smart and too active to be kept in boxes. Mine is exhibiting the sort of stereotypical behaviours you typically see in zoo animals like polar bears. It paces the exact same path in the tank over and over, doing the exact same thing on every revolution of it's circular path. If I could find someone with a 500+ gallon tank that wanted him I'd sell him in a second.
