90g stock list

Killerflash · 10/07/2015, 06:49 PM

Hey guys! So while waiting for my cycle to finish I wanted to think of what I eventually want to have in my tank (90g FOWLR).

2 Ocellaris Clowns (Will be the first fish I get)
1 Raccoon Butterfly or Saddleback
1 Flame Angel
1 Bluefin Angel or Half Black
1 Harptail Blenny or Brachiosaurus
1 Indigo Dottyback
? Wrasses ( not sure what kind, but probably flasher(s) )

Does this look like it would work? From what I've read it seems as if it should be okay. Of course it would be months and months down the line before I got them all and the tank it would be better established by the time I got a lot of them.

Not sure about the 2 angelfish in that tank. That said I don't know anything about their compatibility. I would make your clowns and angels the last thing you add. Go from most peaceful to most aggressive when adding fish

Yeah I wasn't totally sure about them, but I heard of some people who have had success with keeping two. If I can't find a way to make it work then I'll probably just settle for only the flame.

Any other opinions on this?
I was mostly curious about the two dwarf angels and also the butterfly.

Well, one time I didn't think a purchase through. I bought a coral beauty at my lfs forgetting I had a rusty angel in my QT/bedroom tank. I thought I'd try it anyway....

Yeah bad choice. My Rusty chased him ruthlessly, I felt so bad for him I got him out the next day and ended up giving my DT ich in the process. Learned a hard lesson.

Ouch! That's rough. I wonder if adding them at the same time would have made any difference or if different sizes/same size changes anything..
Doesn't sound too good so far for my stocking wish list of having two

I'm sure that would help. I did fine with 2 tangs introduced at the same time. If you do decide to do it just have a backup plan if things don't work out.

Wanted to bring this thread back to life to ask you guys what order do you think I should get these fish?
I plan on getting the first one in a week and wanted to know what would be the best choice of fish for the first one from my list.

Going least aggressive to most, I would think you would start with the blenny
