    Anemone's can and will pose a risk to corals.They can also make a mess of the tank if they perish.I wouldn't......

    Haha :)

    Yeah, I think your right there, I don't think it would be worth it to pose a treat to corals after you spend quite a bit on them money wise and care.

    Personally, I'd drop the thought of any shoaling fish or schooling or herding or whatever;)

    look into some flasher wrasse, they are mostly midlevel and fly around the tank.

    Yeah I was thinking about a wrasse but are Flashers aggressive to similar sized fish like Six lines are?

    not at all, all fish can be, but flashers are good community fish

    Okay so I was thinking since it's coming close to when I'm starting this new tank. My stock list at the moment will hopefully be:

    Whitetail Bristletooth Tang
    2 Percula Clowns
    Jawfish (Maybe)
    Wheelshrimp goby
    2 Firefish

    I was also thinking about adding a Flounder, I can always trade it in when it outgrows but not sure. And I think it would be good in my tank as I want to build up 1 Mountainish area on the left and have the rest free sand space. As for the Angel, Not too sure. I might add it in and I might not :/ Hopefully the Jawfish and the goby will not fight giving that amount of space in the tank. The fish that are permanent are the Tang and Clowns I've decided.

    Sounds good to me! Flounders are cool.
