I am looking for a final fish to round out my 125 FO live rock tank. I have the following fish in there now: 9 in. grouper (friendly so far, raised on dead food) 6 in. clown trigger (these can be aggressive, but this one is OK) 6 in. red corris wrasse, 4 in. rock beauty (I got lucky with a hardy one), 4 in. puple tang, 4+ in. one stripe clown (he does OK even with the grouper in sight).

Sounds like you might have enough. Those fish must be producing alot of waste which may in time lead to algae problems or high nitrates.

SOUNDS PRETTY FULL TO ME. ADDING ANOTHER FISH COULD LEAD UP TO TROUBLE. IF YOUR TANK AND FISH ARE HEALTHY, YOU MAY WANT TO KEEP IT AS IS.
 
I really like pufferfish. I think that you could add one more, especially if your tank has been running for awhile. I liek the pufferfish because they are nice and friendly and have alot of personality, and yet don't get pushed around in a tank. Your tank sounds great!!!

Hey Floridaman,
You never hear about it but my favorite is still the greenbird wrasse. Great personality with incredible color. I've always had one in all my tanks. I have one now and still is the coolest fish in my opinion.

A lunare wrasse is one of the coolest looking fish there is. You wouldn't have to worry about him either because they're fast(with the other aggressive fish). Emperor angels are one of my favorites.

If you want an emperor be careful when selecting. I would buy a juv. or younger adult 3-4 inches. Make sure it eats like crazy and if you get a juv. make sure his color is perfect no fading(unless he is changing) whatever fish you get do a lot of research before you buy.
