Adding fish

[pinkreef]

list is so big! i would start with the firefish mandarin chromis anthias royal grama and wrasse. i would add the tangs last all together. i dont know anything about the temperment of the angel or trigger.

How big is the tank that you are getting?

Agree with Pinkreef on the order.

As a heads up on the clowns - I added 2 black & whites to my 180 that already had 2 clarkii's. The female clarkii killed the female b&w. The male is ok though but she still chases him whenever he gets close to her nem.

My blue tang goes after my blue throat trigger, even though the blue tang was added after the trigger. This is the second blue tang I've had and its behaviour is the same as the first. If I could catch him, he'd be gone from the tank.

I have a flameback angel and other than being a weirdo (swims laps around the powerheads and GSP that has grown on the back of the tank), is absolutely fine.

That is a big fish list with some aggressive fish. I'm not sure how the copperband butterfly will handle some of the aggressiveness and whether its a good fit.

dont get a mandarin yet they only eat pods unless you can train it to eat mysis like i did other than that it will starve

The tank is 150 gallons with a 60 gallon sump i am keeping my mandarin in my old tank until pod population is high in my new tank. I have always been unsure about the copperband butterfly but my mom REALLY likes them and the blue throat trigger isnt a fish that i have to have its only a fish i think is cool. And also do you think if i added the clowns all at the same time and if they were roughly the same size would they be fine?
