Looks pretty good but here is some suggestions. You`ll need more rock in there. You dont have to get LR if it`s too expensive but you`ll need some more BR or something. It will all become live over time. As far as the anthias you`ll need to get at least three. They are a schooloing fish and need more than one or two. Just my observations.

I got my LR today about 80 pounds.I changed my list:

2 clark's clownfish
1 royal gramma
1 blackcap gramma
1 flame angelfish
1 yellow tang
I'm having a big mental blank on other fish some suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!!I like fish that don't get big in size min.3" max.9"
Thanks

 

[melosu58]

I sure am getting tired of your fish list changing. LOL. Just kidding you are doing great.

 

[fishboy444]

I'm also getting tired,lol,but it is interesting to learn about new fish!
Any other comments/suggestions?

 

[fishboy444]

How about like a domino damsel or a damsel of some sort?

 

[fishboy444]

Could a one spot foxface rabbitfish work?

 

[fishboy444]

Wait one last one:
2 clark's clownfish
1 royal gramma
1 blackcap gramma
1 flame angelfish
1 powder blue surgeon
1 one spot foxface rabbitfish
1 domino damselfish?

 

[fishboy444]

Geez I'm writing to myself lol.I was thinking something like this:

3 blue devil damselfish
2 clark's clownfish
1 royal gramma
1 blackcap gramma
1 flame angelfish
1 powder blue surgeon
1 one spot foxface rabbitfish

 

[AMDPhenomX4]

The foxface should be fine. I have one in my tank and it doesnt touch the corals or the other fish.

 

[fishboy444]

Thanks amd!I think I'll go with this list:

2 blue devils
2 clark's clownfish
1 royal gramma
1 flame angelfish
1 purple tang

 

[fishboy444]

Just saw a young high hat drumfish and it was so cool!!Could I??

2 blue devils
2 clark's clownfish
1 royal gramma
1 flame angelfish
1 purple tang
1 high hat drumfish

 

[fishboy444]

actually no high hat...oh well.instead of of blue devils could I go with 3 yellowtail damselfish?

 

[fishboy444]

today I opened my "conscientious marine aquarist" and it opened up to the lionfish page and it was always doing that and I think it wants me to get a lionfish!so I have a new list:
1 spotfin lionfish antennata
1 humu Picasso triggerfish
1 yellow or purple tang
and some thing that stirs the sandbed
is this good?To add them in this order?

 

[fishboy444]

I think I'm going a little bit crazy talking to my self over here.....
Well I was reading on lionfish and trying to decide.I came up with this:

1 yellowtail blue damsel
2 clark's clownfish
1 flame angelfish
1 yellow tang
1 fu manchu lionfish
could a sixline wrasse and royal gramma go with a fu lion?

 

[fishboy444]

This is another list:
1 raccoon butterflyfish
1 harlequin tuskfish
1 pterois radiata
1 yellow tang
1 moon wrasse??

 

[melosu58]

actually no high hat...oh well.instead of of blue devils could I go with 3 yellowtail damselfish?

I personally would not go with any damsels. They end up getting pretty mean and then when they do you usually have to tear the tank apart to get them out. JMO

 

[fishboy444]

Ok thanks melosu.I am actually going with:

1 radiata lionfish
1 picasso triggerfish
1 regal tang
1 harlequin tuskfish
1 dogface or porcupine puffer
and something else?

 

[Joelle2149]

damsels are VERY Territorial unless you dont ever want to add more fish i would stay away frm them
