75 gallon stocking list

bteagle93 · 12/28/2007, 06:50 PM

Hey guys, Im in the planing stages for my 75 gallon in wall tank. Here were my plans:
1 yellow tang
1 Flame pygmy
2 oc. clowns (will be transfered from my 10g)
3 blue/green chromis

Is this too overstocked? Opinions and suggestions are appreciated! thanks

Sounds good to me!

okay great. thanks!

I would think you could add a few more if you had a good skimmer. No big fish, but a few more small to medium.

Maybe a jawfish or blenny? What about a reef safe wrasse? Just some thoughts.

yea Im gonna have a ASM G2 skimmer, which is more than enough, and I was thinking about a six line wrasse. However, would it be okay to substitue the flame angel for a kole tang or is a yellow and a kole to much for a 75g?

IMO I like the Koles over the Yellows. I would do one or the other. I would do a flasher wrasse before a 6 Line. Skip the Chromis. They will pick each other off until there is just one left. The Flames are nice. So are the Flamebacks. Just make sure it's a FOWLR tank. You could go for a Goby, Blenny, or Hawkfish too.

I have no first hand experience, but based upon various threads I ran across here that 2 tangs in a 75 is probably pushing it.

no its going to be a reef. so idk about the flames or flamebacks. and Im not sure what tang Ill choose either..I might get both very small and transfer them to a buddys 150 when they are to big.

140 bucks is a little pricy. however, beautiful fish.
