90 Gallon Stocking Advice (Reef)

So this or next week, I'll be obtaining a 90 gallon tank. Here's the ideas so far.

Fuzzy Dwarf Lionfish Trio (MFF)

And that's all I have so far! I'd like to think that since they are smaller lions, I have more stocking options? I'd like to add my Clown but am mildly worried that she will end up as a $30 meal.

-I have a hood (Jumpers?)
-No Tangs
-No Angels
-No Eels

That's what I got, let me know.

 

Reef not a predator tank right?

 

Yes! Reef! Reef with lions

 

You can do dwarf angels in a 90 gallon no problem. Potters, Flame, Bicolor, Coral Beauty to name some.

Tangs are a big issue with some ppl but I would say you could get a Kole tang. Might be other few that stay small. Honestly I have a yellow tang in my 90g. Probably borderline for him. But he is happy and have had him for 4 years.

Wrasses are always fun to watch too....


School of Anthias?

 

My issue with Tangs and Angels, is that they nip at lions. So thats why is says no angels, no lions, no eels

I was thinking wrasses and stuff. but I want to see what I could get.

 

Oh ok. I was thinking more along size of tank not tank mates. I have no experience with lions. Not sure what wrasses would be compatable with lions.

 

Larger wrasse and anthias

 

I'm thinking a dragon wrasse, and how many of what kind of anthia?

 

dont dragon wrasses get to be a foot long?

 

125 is the recommended size. But they aren't reef safe anyway! So scratch that!
