Just curious on to what type of fish are watching for to add to their aquarium.  Thought it would be interesting to see what people are wanting to add.
 
Myself personally am getting ready to add a Flame Wrasse pair and a Scott's Fairy Wrasse.  I have been on a wrasse kick and thinking about giving my Tangs an eviction notice to make more room.
 
Recenlty added
Candy Hogfish
Divided Leopard Wrasse (Eating preped food. Woot!!)
and
Exquisite Wrassse (African)

I want a fowlers tang, lineatus pair, bellus angel, group of carberryi anthias, and the one I can't find is a small to medium yellow pyramid butterfly. I'm just waiting to get my 210 up and rolling for these...

I have been after a Male Blond Naso Tang for quite awhile now. Also plan on a White Tail Bristletooth Tang, three more Bartlet Anthias, Pearly or Blue Spot Jawfish, a Goby/Shrimp combo, Yellow Flanked Fairy Wrasse, a trio of Maldives Lyretail Anthias, Yellow Candy Hogfish... Thats good for now.

VERY carefully!     That's what she said!

I'm still learning about what types of fish are even available so I read threads like this and look up fish that others post to see what I like and what might work well in my tank.

Powder Brown Tang (too big for my 120 )
Schooling Banner Fish
a school of Chromis
Mimic Surgeon Fish
Kole Tang
The blue spotted tang like fish in ReefOn's display tank that follows me around like a dog

Generally, the only way to tell the sex of a Tang is in the presence of streamers off the tail. This would indicate a Magnificent MALE Blond Naso Tang. Peaceful- but king of the jungle in my book.

And we can cross of the Yellow Flanked Fairy Wrasse. Clap

Quickness head on over to aquatic dreams for your flame wrasse pair. They had a pair last Friday, good price too. If I thought they would live in my tank I would have snagged them up in a heartbeat. By the way pictures do not do these fish justice. All I can say is wow they are some gorgeous fish.
If you make it idiot proof, someone will find a better idiot!
Well 100g crashed when I moved it. Starting a 50g cube now.
