125g fowlr stock list

Spot breast Angel, powder blue tang, raccoon butterfly fish, trigger (either a clown trigger or a black one my lfs has), and a puffer of some kind. I really like some of the lionfish species but IDK how well it would do with the other fish. I would also like to get an eel but I doubt thats gonna happen. Let me know what yall think. Also is there any order I should add them due to aggression?

 

least to most aggressive I believe. Start with the butterfly

 

Also thinking about a wrasse of some kind...

 

I was thinking about adding in order; spot breast Angel, raccoon butterfly, blue head wrasse, powder blue tang, and then the trigger.

 

I read online that triggers and lion fish dont get along real well, any truth to this statement?

 

Triggers sometimes nip at the lionfish fins and could actually result in lionfish death. Best advice I have for mixing loins with tank mates is if a lion can fit it in it's mouth, it will! Also know that if you start with all tank mates the same size, your lions might grow faster, then its feeding time on tank mates. Also, if you are thinking volitan lions, minimum 75 gallon tank required. They grow to 15-18 inches.

Hope this helps!

 

Thats what I read as well, well not the growth thing but the nipping part. Thanks

 

I wish I could get an Achilles tang, beautiful tang...
