I currently have a yellow tang and a pair of clowns in my 75 fowler and recently lost a royal gramma (no idea why, completely disappeared and seemed to have been doing fine) and am thinking of adding a lawnmover blennie and one other fish, any suggestions?

A lawnmower blenny will be fine in your FOWLR tank. They are reef safe too, and I believe they love algae.

You have a lot of options for a 75 gallon, have you considered some wrasses or firefish maybe?

Your Tang is a grazer,so it will have to compete with the LM blenny for chow!

Right now, I have a lot of hair algae growing, among other stuff on the live rock. I'll also be adding some more live rock to the mix.

Oh wait, won't wrasse eat shrimp? I have a cleaner and a few peppermint shrimp, and two emerald crabs. Also a serpent star that would likely get pecked at at least? Sorry, probably should have mentioned that in the beginning.

Not sure about the compatibility, but I can tell you that the 6 line wrasse is my favorite fish. Great colors, and loves pods. They should be introduced into a well developed tank though.

EDIT: From looking at one of my past threads here]http://www.fishprofiles.com/files/forums/Reef%20Keeping/48758.html[/link] Marc, or ACIDRAIN recommended filament and yellow hog wrasse, because they stay pretty small. Try looking at those, and you can look up fish at [link=MarineDepotLive

Smaller wrasses will not bother shrimp, one group that would give you a lot of choices are the Flasher Wrasses.
