Ok, the Tank is a Lido 120 with live sand, 12lbs of live rock and a AquaC Remora Skimmer. (Even though its listed as a 120L tank, I actually needed 140 to fill it ?) Flow is two Hydor Nanos on a D+D wave machine. . Lit by the std 2 x T5 tubes.

I plan for a fish only system. and whilst I cycle the tank (fishless) I have been thinking about stocking list and just as importantly the introduction order and timings.

Heres the fish on my initial wish list, although as usual I have to many .. Ideas please.

- Coral Beauty
- Ocellaris Clown
- Carpenters Wrasse
- Yellow Goby (the tiny ones)
- YellowTail Blue Damsil

condidered but kinda on the bench as the above seems to much cm to L for me ..

- Neon Goby
- royal Gramma
- Firefish, purple or Red

Looking for a good and varied colour display.

You don't want a damsel unless you have a large, aggressive tank. They are mean little buggers that can and will harass, possibly kill the other fish you have listed. The wrasse, assuming you mean a Carpenter Flasher Wrasse, will prefer far less aggressive tankmates. The only real issue I would see is the damsel. Drop that for one of the other fish you are considering and you'll be good to go.
