sounds pretty good to me....If it were me, I might knock down the chromis count to 3 or 4 due to the fact that I just saw some monster size ones at my LFS. I have 3 myself and I had no idea how big they can get. Post some pics when you're set up

A warning about the chromis.
They do make a nice school....for a short period of time, untill they start to kill each other off. I've tried several times to have a nice school of chromis, but everytime, they have dwindled down to one or two fish. This, after lots of reaserch as to why, is because they are part of the damsel family, and they will only school if there is a predator in the tank that forces them to school.

ok i will probably drop the chromis and find some other small fish or can i keep the tangs if i drop the chromis and dont get anything else. Globalpimp i am getting setup right now i filled it with water this weekend so i am cycling and working on my hood. The hood will contain two 175 watt Mh. And 4*65 watt actinic. will this light be sufficient for soft corals and an enemone or two. But i know anemones need to be in a well developed system it would be a while though before i got it. Thanks for all your great advice. Mateo
