You can get aquamaxx dry reef rock from MD for pretty cheap. But for sure you need a lot more rock not just for looks but biofiltration as well. A s**t load of green chromis can fill a tank nicely too. lol

I would paint the back black, reaquascape with two seamounts and keep the center clear. A torch coral may look nice too. Example of twin sea mount you can play with size, height but it gives a rough idea.

Right now i have 2 blue tangs ,1 purple tang , 2 clownfish , 1 clarki . 1 yellow coris wrasse , 1 blonde naso tang,powder brown tang . What other fish you think i can add?
5 tangs in a 180g sounds like a good sized bioload so scratch the idea of more fish, but what I recently did was sell almost all my fish and gave some away for free and started with new fish and redid my rockwork to include more caves, tunnels, islands and overhangs and the combo of new fish and new rockwork has sparked my interest once again.

Achilles are difficult to keep, in, my research. Best bet is to find someone selling an established one.


Scott's fairy wrasses are nice. But will get aggressive towards new wrasses addition. If you want one, add it as your last wrasse...and even then it can be a gamble.

Yellow tangs are great.

Labouti wrasse are peaceful and rather colorful (i have one and have been told it's one of the better looking in my tank)

Powder blue tangs are dope....but like with all tangs, prone to ich

I would take that rock out of the middle. Look for someone selling live rock and re-think the rock you have. Stack what you have instead of spreading it out
