Was wondering what would be one or two of your must have or want fish for your reef tank?

Blue throat Trigger, and a schoal or powder blue tang. If I only had a bigger tank those would be first on my stocking list.

Right now my favorite fish in my tank is my radiant wrasse.

Male Blonde Naso Tang

What what i read alot around here is that blue throats are pretty much safe for a reef but every fish is different so i would never say 100%

Liopropoma carmabi

And hey, while we're at it, a school of Pseudanthias ventralis.

not sure i have a favorite, but as my buddy and i get ready to set up a FOWLR tank at work, i got my eye on these guys:

Flame Hawkfish

Pearl Scale Butterfly

Ya know what, while I have an unlimited budget for a deepwater reef tank, I'll throw in a Belonoperca pylei as well.

...and a Bodianus sanguineus too.

sunburst anthias

chevron tang

orange skunk clown

flame wrasse, purple tang, scott's fairy, and orchid doddyback

I have to agree with loup's selection of the Lyretail Anthias. A really beautiful fish and Reef Safe. Mine swim with my Black Axil chromis's and they make a stunning contrast.

I was reffered to this thread by fragmented, and I am asking for suggestions on a smaller scale. Meaning a 30g breeder that I have cycling right now. Not trying to hijack this thread just trying to broaden the question. thanks a lot.
