Hey guys, right now i have 2 clown fish 4 chromis(i like the look) and a coral beauty angel fish, I had a ich breakout about 3 weeks ago and its been gone since then so im just waiting to let it settle down before i add anything.
Also i have about 90 pounds of lr in the display.

Anyways my wish list is
Emperor angel fish(will it fight with my coral beauty)
Couple bangaii cardinals.
Hippo tang.
And a copperbanded butterfly.

Id also like a hawk fish but that might be pushing it.

i thinkg the hippo thang is too big, but i dont see a problem with anything else. My flame hawk fish doesn't swim around much, just kinda perches and creeps on everyone. I dont see the rest being an issue.

Is there an upgrade planned because Emperor angels get big and Hippos will need more swimming space. The other fish choices sound fine, but if there's little or no possibility of going to a 6' tank in the future (year or two), then I would stay away from fish that grow over 6-8". I found that by the time I aquascaped an 18" wide tank, the swimming space became quite limited. All my sw tanks are now 2' wide & I would prefer wider personally.

i am planning a upgrade for sure, just looking for the right deal on a tank anywhere from 130-180. 6 foot for sure.
