It really depends on what you like. The new fish of the month for me is a Picasso Clownfish. I just got one from SWF and it is one of the coolest fish I have. Another good idea would be tangs (yellow, pacific, purple) if money isn't an option, you could get a black tang. Some of the Fairy Wrasses are gorgeous and not horribly expensive either. Most people will end up putting a 6 line wrasse in their tank at some point but my favorite wrasse is a Red Possum Wrasse the only place I have found them online is aquacon.com. There is a small list of fish for right now but I could go all day dpending on what you want your tank to look like and how much you want to spend.

That sounds like a very good list Teresa!
I like smaller fish with lots of color, but would not mind a Tang or two.

Awesome addition. I had my eye on one of those at my LFS for about two months (along with the price tag
), yet right when I was readyto get one, it was sold. That one looks really healthy.

A six line wrasse.

Theyre so awesome looking. They had one the other day for sale at the LFS I go to. I cant see myself spending that much money on a fish. I havent killed any fish I've purchased so far, but I wouldnt want to chance it.

My favorite fish in my tank is my mystery wrasse. Looks great and has great personality.
If I was doing FOWLR instead of a Reef, I would get a clown trigger.
If I was going over the top and doing a specimen tank with one occupant, and infinite care to make sure it stayed in the tank, I would get an octopus, what spectacular creatures!

I'm actually working on a 180 and this is the stocklist I'm going with (thought it might help):
1 Hippo Tang
1 Yellow Tang
1 Convict Tang
2 False perc clowns
6 Chromis
1 Fairy wrasse
1 Mandarin (though waiting for the tank to be mature first)
1 Royal Gramma
I may go with 1 or 2 more in there, if bioload looks ok over time, but that's what I've got on my list so far. If I had more money, I'd go this route (and I might swap out the yellow for the sailfin anyway):
1 Hippo Tang
1 Desjardini Sailfin Tang
1 Achilles Tang
2 False perc clowns
3-5 Anthias (not sure, maybe Bartlett)
1 Fairy wrasse
1 Mandarin (though waiting for the tank to be mature first)
1 Royal Gramma
1 Hippo Tang
1 Yellow Tang
1 Convict Tang
2 False perc clowns
6 Chromis
1 Fairy wrasse
1 Mandarin (though waiting for the tank to be mature first)

I wouldn't mix clowns like that. JMO, but you should probably get a pair of one type or the other.
