I currently have a 55 gallon FOWLR. I have a Yellow Tang (i know i need a longer tank), coral beauty, false perc. six like wrasse, and a longnose hawkfish. The yellow tang and coral beauty are about 4 inches long, the clown and the six line are only about a 1.5" and the longnose is about 2". I plan to upgrade to a 125 in the fall but until then i was wondering what else if anything i can add to my tank. I think it is pretty full now, but i was wondering if i could add a small fish that will grow into a 125 eventually or would this be too much. I have about 60-70lbs of live rock, CPR bak pak skimmer, 2 powerheads.
What does everyone think?

Welcome to the boards! I would not add anything else to the tank until you upgrade. That is a heavy bioload that you have in a small tank already.

A foxface would be a great choice if you plan to upgrade in the future. This is the best fish I have. He's got a great personality, is always active in front of the tank and looks great.
