My daughter is going to be setting up her own tank. Here is her "wish list" for stocking:
2 ocelleris clownfish -mated pair 1 blue headed wrasse 1 multicolor angel 1 purple tang Do you think this will be a good mix? She will be getting at least a 100G tank. We like the deeper tanks, but will a 48 x 36 x 27 be okay for the tang? Thanks for your help!

I do plan to QT all tangs for minimum of 6 weeks. I will only buy a Australian copperbanded butterfly. Aside from the above mentioned, do you think the bioload is ok? As far as what order to add these fish, where in the lineup should the copperbanded butterfly be added? Thank you for your guidance.

Thanks again. Yeah my clarkii is pretty mellow. Doesn't like the cardinal for whatever reason so she makes sure it doesn't come too close but nothing violent. Otherwise nothing in the tank fights at all ever. Midas blenny has been on my wish list for quite some time. I may give one a try if I can find a good colored one for cheap enough. Just wanted to double check for major red flags.

30 Gallon tall
Just moved to a different state. My 30 gallon tall seems to be surviving. Water chemistry may be cycling slightly. I have a ocellaris clown and a royal gramma that survived the trip and are happy in the 60lbs of live rock. I am interested in your thoughts on adding another clown, hawkfish, firefish, and or six lined wrasse. Which one or ones would make the best active tank? I sold all my coral before the move not knowing if they would survive the trip. My QT tank is just starting to cycle and these additions wouldn't be for a couple months.

I currently have a 110 and will be upgrading very soon to a 240+ gallon 8ft x 2ft x 2ft FOWLR setup.
Current fish: Blue face angel (5in adult) Domino damsel (4in) Blue velvet damsel (4.5in) Engineer goby (9in) Gold stripe maroon clown (3in) Spotted rabbitfish (4in) Sohal tang (7in) I know that my current fish are all in tight quarters but so far they've gotten along (going 6 months). Now for the 240 gal I plan on adding: Flame hawk fish French angelfish Orange shoulder tang (show sized) Blonde naso tang Two large angels in the long run are likely to be problematic; the French especially can be aggressive. A Sohal tang, from my experience, will mature into a very ornery fish. They are fine when small, but there seems to be a point when a switch flips and they become super aggressive. While your new tank is significantly larger than your current one, I am reluctant to indicate that this mix will work long term as the fish mature. I will be keeping the sohal in QT for a while and will be the absolute last fish to be transferred over. Thanks in advance for input! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the recommendation. I revised my list: Blue faced angel Potters angel Desjardini tang Yellow tang Blue hippo tang Blue faced wrasse Banggai cardinal Gold striped maroon clown Vlamingii tang Sohal tang Gold spot rabbitfish Domino damsel Electric blue damsel Engineer goby Harlequin tusk Is that too many fish for my sized tank? |
