stocking a 125gal tank :)

I have a new 125gal tank to stock I know some of these fish require a large amounts of care so I only plan to add them once I have some vital experience. All the fish I am getting are at their smallest stage... so here we go


Bicolor Angelfish (3)
Imperator Angelfish (1)
Chrysurus Angel (1)
Brazilian Gramma (3)
Black Sailfin Blenny (3)
Red Sea Raccoon Butterfly (1)
Banner Cardinal (5)
Wide Banded clownfish (2)
Akindynos Clown AUSTRALIA (2)
Blonde Naso Tang (1)
Powder Blue Tang (1)
Blue Tang (1)
Yellow Tang (1)

These fish will all be between 3-5'' and once i get the tangs bigger I am going to move them along.

i don't think the angle's will get along with each other.. im also not to sure about 4 clowns or all those tangs, wouldn't it be better to get a differnt spieces (sp) instead of 3 or 4 of the same kind? alot of fish don't get along with the same shape as theirself.. just my 2cents

If I go with more than one, I want to pair them, so will be adding them at the same time.

yes i know, but if i add them at the same time then they will be less aggressive towards each other.

I'd pare that list down quite a bit. 25 fish, all territorial, and quite a few that get large, is way too much bioload for a 125g IMHO.
