    Hi there,
    I'm glad to be back. I haven't been on in a long time because we were moving. Sadly, I lost almost everything. I lost my Maroon Clown, Yellow Eye Kole Tang, Mandarin Dragonet, Cleaner Shrimp, 3 corals, and some snails and crabs. The only thing left is the Fire Shrimp, some crabs and snails, and a few corals. :-/

    But, I'm not going to let that bring me down. I want to post a new stocklist now that I am settled. What do you think of my future stocklist?

    1 Cherub Angelfish / Coral Beauty Angelfish
    1 Green / Red Mandarin Dragonet
    1 Bicolor Blenny
    2 Ocellaris Clownfish
    2 Red Firefish

    1 Fire Shrimp
    Crabs
    Snails
    Anemone - Not sure what kind
    Starfish - Not sure what kind

    Soft/LPS Corals

    I decided not to go with a tang...because the one I want is the Hippo Tang and I don't want to buy fish that will grow out my tank...

    Agreed, unless you raise pods or gets ones that eat prepared foods. The cherub angel can get mean too as it ages, so keep that in mind. You may want to add him last.

    Ok. I'll just stick with 1 then. My last Mandarin (The one that died) ate brine shrimp along with pods after a while. Thanks guys. I have a refugium as well though...
