    I'd say the the dwarf angel might be the only one who gives you problems with nipping at corals. I've had a two dwarf angels and they were both nippers & would be aggressive towards the gobies. The lil angel would chase them & make em jump out of tank. Clowns can be aggressive also. Give the gobies time to be in the tank & make all there lil homes under the rocks before adding clown or angel. I never had a problem with my fox face nipping corals. But I suppose it depends on the fish & your feedings.

    I still have to order my screen kit for the top of the tank. Would the one spot foxface be ok to add first?

    I would go in this order...

    Firefish
    Chromis x3
    Oc Clown
    Fox Face
    Tang
    Angel


    Might be able to flip the Oc Clown and Fox Face.

    The smaller fish will help establish your biofilter.

    That's kind of the order I was thinking I needed. I just really like the coloring on the foxface. The angel on the other hand may not make the cut, very pretty fish, but the corals I'm going to keep will look good too. I guess we'll see.

    BTW, thank you for your help!
