Hello. I'd like some advice/comments on stocking my 70 gal reef with 100lbs of LR and 30 gal sump with skimmer and fuge. The main display is nearly 3' x 2' x 20" h.
I currently have:
2 false percs (two years old from my previous tank)
1 Mandarin Goby (had him for 2 weeks)
1 Cleaner Shrimp
1 Emerald Crab
Bunches of snails, hermit crabs, bugs...
I have a few different corals, some acros, montis, frogspawn, rics.
I don't want to push the limits with stocking, so help me avoid that. Here are the fish I was thinking of:
- Green Chromis (3 of these)
- Sixline Wrasse (Should I avoid this sine I have the mandarin?)
- Flaming Prawn Goby (2 of these - I realize I may seldom see these)
- 3 stripe or 4 stripe Damsel (If I add him last will he still be to agressive?)
- Yellow Stripe Clingfish
- Yellow Watchman Goby (rocks are on sandbed - will he cause these to fall?)
- fire shrimp
Plus one of the following:
- Yellow Tang
- Sargassum Trigger
- Copperband Butterfly
Thanks for the help! I'll take any other suggestions, too....and any advice on what order the fish should be added.
Thanks,
Mark
