75 gallon fish list

[emperorangelman]

What do you think about my 75 gallon fish list?

-Yellow tang
-flame angel
-mated pair perculas
-purple psuedochromis
-longnose hawkfish
-6 lined wrasse
-midas blenny
-and eventually a mandarin when there is enough pods

-hermit crabs
-emerald crab
-cleaner shrimp
-2 brittle stars
-turbo snails

and eventually when i get better lighting
-corals
-clam
-anemonies

Seems okay but watch out down the road w/ the flame angel and your corals/clams. They are known to nip

 

[emperorangelman]

would you recommend one of the other dwarfs instead? like the coral beauty?

I'd suggest choosing either the 6 lined wrasse OR a Mandarin. Unfortunately, it's not a good idea to keep them together. The Wrasse will out compete the Mandarin for the food supply that the Mandarin HAS to have.

All about the same. IME the flame is less likely than the others to nip.

I also agree with sid. Pick the mandarin or the wrasse. Not both.

could i replace 6 lined with a copperband butterfly?

 

[Brenden]

Copperbands are also known nippers. Feather dusters, anemones etc will be killed. Why not just eliminate one. You are maxing the tank with that load anyways.

could i replace with a pink square anthias?
