Doesn't Doug work in a fish store? If a customer were to come into the store with the same parameters as your tank and asked him the same question you asked, would he not give them the same answer?
You and your darn logic! When I don't get an answer I like I tend to ask for a second opinion

I think it has more to do with not spending money I don't have then how full the tank is.

Thankfully my red coris has been fairly well behaved (other then eating the odd snail every now and then) so I don't mind him being in the reef.

Thanks everyone for the info on the bird wrasses. It's a 230g fowlr tank so it should be a good fit for them.

Those are cool but very similar to the bursa trigger that I already have in there.

I have a purple tang in my reef. I love crosshatch triggers but they are expensive and not aggressive enough to hold their own against my king angel. I was debating between a banana wrasse or bird wrasse, bananas are pretty but rarely available in Edmonton.
