fish suggestions for 75 gal

[dad300]

hey all,
a little background.. a few months ago I lost all my fish (except a yellow watchman Goby) after I purchased a large show fish.. watched it for a few weeks in the store.. qt'd for a short period of time, less than a week..
three weeks later it gave the tank some kind of bacterial thing and I lost every fish in the space of a week.
I'm now looking to add some fish but am considering a group of schooling fish.. Damsels, chromis or something else..
your suggestions???

Just following this thread because I also have a 75g and I'm interested in a school. What say ye experts?

Chromis do school nicely, but there seems to be an attrition rate. Over 18 months, my school has gone from 7 to 3. Also, I had a single large one in my 72, and after no outward signs, it up and died one day.

I have 4 anthias in my 72 now, and 3 out of 4 do school. They're pretty, but my wife calls them 'expensive goldfish' YMMV

School of Clowns?

Anthias! They are much more interesting behaviorly and interactive/shoaling than Chromis.

1/2 dozen Tangs would look cool.
