Just IMO, marinecenter.com has a lot of really unique looking fairy wrasses on their site. I use that site a lot to look at different kinds of fish, but their prices are usually really high. It's always nice to look though.

Honestly I'd say you're done adding fish, and should really think about removing a few of those larger fish unless you have plans for a big upgrade... Remove three of the tangs, and if you have great filtration you might be OK. Also it depends on what kinds of damsels those are. Some get huge, and some stay rather small. If they're smaller ones it'll be OK if the filtration is up for the challenge. Sorry for the bad news, but that's just a lot of fish in there.

Wow if you think thats a lot in a 180...my 95g is way over stocked then!! Id add a few nice wrasses and an angel or 2....as long as the tangs are all getting along, and you keep up on water changes you are fine.

At $3,699.99 I can see why not to many people have this fish maybe if they offer a 14year guarantee I would consider it!
I was thinking I had room for a few more fish. my 7 damsels are very small their combined weight is < one of my yellow tangs. I have about 250# LR, a healthy fuge and good skimmer and all my fish look great, but if the consenses is that I'm at my max then I'll just have to window shop. or even better set up another tank!!!, where can I hide one so the better half doesn't find out. |

bangaii man:
Your 7 tangs probably out weight my 8 angels now and double within a year. My 7 incl--6 flame angels, juv emperor and juv blueface. If you do decide to add interesting fishes take a look at: a pair of watnabei and a pair of japanese swallow angels. |

According to liveaquaria.com they are peaceful in nature and grows to 6-7". I'm working getting them can't tell you for sure but don't see why it wouldn't work. Just like everything else, have a back-up plan if it doesn't. (hide that new tank)

The Genicanthus genus (swallowtail angels) are amazing and beautiful fish. They will be fine with a flame angel and they don't nip at corals. I keep a pair of blackspot with a flame no problem. Here is some info
