I have a 240 gallon (6 foot) reef tank and am thinking of adding one more fish. My current stock list is as follows.
1 yellow tang (4 inches)
1 powder brown tang(acantherus japonicus) (7-8) inches
1 Blue hippo tang (4 inches)
1 flame angel (3 inches)
6 green chromis
1 mystery wrasse (3 inches)
1 false percula clown
I would like to add another tang, possibly a sailfin but if that isn't possible I would like some suggestions. My tank has been established for 3 years and has 200 pounds of live rock in the dt. I like the open look, but also know that biological filtration can be compromised without enough liverock. I have a 35 gallon sump/refugium with mangroves and caularpa also. What do you think? Thanks for looking

IMO, you might run into issues between the yellow and sailfin.
A small school of anthias would be a nice touch.

yeah I don't want to risk a deathmatch between the yellow and sailfin. I don't think my tank is long enough for a naso longterm. Maybe I'll stick with some smaller fish like a bicolor blenny or like you said, a small school of anthias. Thanks for the advise
