Hi Guys,
I want to add a new fish to my tank, looking for some help or recommendations. I haven't added any fish now for about 8 months just worried my current fish 3 Tangs ( Yellow,Blue & Sailfin) might be too aggressive for a new addittion. I did add a cleaner and a blood shrimp with no problems. It might just be me and I'm paranoid, but rather be safe then sorry.
Anyways what would be a good addition for the tank

Tank is about 3 years old with the 3 tangs being in there for about year and a half. It is FOWLR, and to me they don't seem territorial its just that it use to be an aggressive tank with puffers, lions and triggers and I am assuming the fish maybe picked up bad habits from the others. When I use to feed ghost shrimp to the others the tangs would just tear through the shrimp. Hence why I was worried yesterday adding the blood and cleaner, but that went perfect. The yellow tangs is about 4' and the Saifin and Blue are about 5'.

I've heard of a mirror trick that should distract them.I think if you search "mirror trick"on here it should show up.

Okay guys so I decided between these 2 fish. A six line wrasse or a watchman goby. I called my local fish store and they have both fish in stock and i will be headed there within an hour or so.
Just want some posts from you guy on here. What would you prefer? Do any of you have them in your tanks currently and can enlighten me with the goods and the bads with these 2 fish
Thanks guys
Im getting so anxious haven't got a new fish in so long. I'm getting the feeling again like a kid in a candy store

I knew I can count on my devil fan buddy. See, yours in good but my buddy says his is a killing machine. I'm not worried about my tangs just don't want add fish down the road and he terrorizes them.
How big of a tank is your six line in?
