Ok, here is my current stock list:

1 Lawnmower Blenny
1 Royal Gramma Basslet
1 Foxface Lo
2 True Percula Clownfish
1 Blue Hippo Tang

Here is what I plan to add:

1 Powder Brown Tang
1 Yellow Head Jawfish
1 Sixline Wrasse OR 1 Midas Blenny

The tank is a 80 Ga. reef with Sugar-sized sand substrate and 100 lbs of live rock. I read something about Jawfish and substrate types, but can't seem to locate it now. Also, I have read mixed reviews about the Sixline Wrasse. Do I need to be worried about him bullying other fish since I am adding him last? The Midas Blenny is an alternative to the Sixline if he is going to cause problems. My tank is doing excellent and I'm ready to order the final few fish so I can start quarantining them. Any suggestions appreciated.

The jawfish depends on how deep the sand bed is. If it is not 4 inches i wouldnt even think about it. You may have problems i an 80 with the Blue and the Powder brown, they are both tangs with similar body shapes, and from what i hear that is not usually good. If they were really small you could probably get away with it but if they are both big i dont know how good of an idea that is. I dont really know much about the wrasse, sorry.

Neither Midas blennies or Sixlines are nice to other fish, there is usually tension between fishes, and the wrasse is lively, but too competitive.
I agree with him about the Jawfish. The jawfish likes to burrow. A lot.
Two similar tangs in the same tank? Don't forget about the aggressiveness between similar tangs. Or their switchblades.
