Stock Help for 4ft 120 Gallon Mixed Reef tank

[psychofishy]

Hello all,

In a few months my tank will be ready for life, I'm just trying to get a good feel of which fish I will want to add.

I've come up with the following, as a start (or total list)


(3) Black & White Chromis (Chromis margaritifer)
(1) Sailfin/Algae Blenny (Salarias fasciatus)
(1) Carpenter's Flasher Wrasse (Paracheilinus carpenteri)
(2) Black & White Ocellaris Clownfish - Tank-Bred (Amphiprion ocellaris var.)
(1) Powder Blue Tang (Acanthurus leucosternon)
(3) Lyretail Anthias (Pseudanthias squamipinnis)

Any feedback? concerns? Suggestions? Additions?

I want to have fish that are not too aggressive and will work well in a mixed reef (zoanthids/SPS/LPS)

What would be a good order to add them in ?

I think the BPT will need a longer tank. From what I understand water volume is less important than swimming space. There are some other nice tangs that can do a 4'

That's unfortunate :( I really liked that one.. Good thing I'll upgrade to a (at least) 6ft tank once I move in a year or two :)

I'll take a look at the species that require 4ft

don't particularly love any of the tangs rated for 4ft. anyone know of a larger fish that could do well in a 4ft reef?

I love my LaMark's Angel and I currently have him in a 4ft 120. He/she will eventually need a bit more swimming space but he's only 2 inches at most. The Watanabei and Bellus angels are also very cool that would do ok if youcan get your hands on a smaller one until your upgrade IMO. Purple tangs are beautiful as well if you're looking into tangs.
