I'm helping a friend setup a 90 gallon tank in his living room. Pretty much the last 8 years or so I've been into salt water aquariums has been with reef tanks. He's leaning away from a reef, so we thought we'd go with a fish only tank.
I thought we could go with the Papuan Puffer as a showcase fish. It's a relatively small puffer that's very colorful.
Other fish I've thought about are:
-Flame Hawkfish
-Tang variation or Trigger Fish or FO Wrasse
-Flame Angel
-Group of some fish: I was thinking Yellow Tail Damsels for their colors, but perhaps blue/green chromis, or some type of cardinal fish
-Lastly a large sand-sifting goby for keeping the sand mixed.
Any issues or problems with this? Other recommendations?
Also, can urchins survive against a small puffer or trigger? I realize crabs/shrimp/snails won't make it.
