    Here's my list of fish I would like to add over a period of 6 months... tell me what you think:
    3 green Chromis
    1 Bicolor Pseudochromi
    1 Black & White Occilaris Clownfish
    1 Occilaris orange Clownfish
    1 Flame Hawkfish
    1 Yellow Tang
    1 Powder Blue Tang
    1 Hawaiian or McCosker Flashe Wrasse
    2 Firefish

    Plus many corals I have not decided yet... first some Mushroom etc.

    What do guys think ... is this an appropriate bioload for my 110g?

    Any comments are mostly appreciated :)))

    Ok. Almost ready to go back home and see how my tank is doing. Found out that I have some aiptasia, so don't really know yet what to do about it....
    You think it's going to hurt? Should I get rid of it before adding any fish?

    I decided not to go to a local store in Germany... no time and too complicated to ship. So, I will order my fish in Spain... just might take a while but at least I know that they quaranteen them for 2 weeks before selling them. Ordered some green Chromis... thought they might be right for breaking in the tank...
    Any opinions?

    A safety thought... looking at your sump and the electric outlets, I would advise making sure there are drip loops on the chords, tieing those chords away from the water, etc. Since your power strip is below the water level, drips, splashes, spills could be an issue.

    Just something to consider. In my sump, I routed the cabling up from the sump and out the back to ensure water and electricity never mixed. They don't mix nicely if they ever do. ;)
