    Ok just picked up a used RSM250 (65g) I am looking for stocking ideas..

    Background.. I have a JBJ 24g now with HQI sunpod. Its a reef tank with mostly corals. I have 2 clowns and had a blue spotted jawfish but he ejected recently. :-[

    So I wanted to go bigger wanted a 90gallon but this was to good of a deal to pass up. It has custom LED Hood so still can do SPS and LPS

    I plan on keeping a reef tank and have 100lbs of live sand and 70lbs of live rock ready to go. I am going to transfer my one clown but looking for some more fish. So looking for some suggestions. I would love a Trigger but I know its not big enough.... I heard you can get away with a blue throat but not going to risk it. I do love very colorful fish so would like to get some bigger livestock. Also like unique. I am going to continue with my corals cause i LOVE a very vibrant tank.

    So again thanks for the input just looking to start my spend list....

    Congrats on the purchase. Look into fairy and flasher wrasses for colorful fish to fit the tank.
