Hello, I have a 126 gallon cycled tank ready for fish. I understand that aggressive fish are added last as to avoid them becoming bullies, but what about fish that seem to have variable temperaments? From what I read, something like a clownfish can be aggressive or calm, while royal gammas tend to be shy or confident. This is the order of introduction I'm thinking relative to the fish I would like to own, with the top of the list being introduced first:
Common Clownfish
Lawnmower Blenny
Banggai Cardinalfish
Pajama Cardinalfish
Royal Gamma
Yellow Tang
Firefish Goby
Flame Angelfish
Melanurus wrasse
I am aware that the final two fish are more intermediate, but I hope that by the time I get around to adding them, I'm hoping I will be confident & familiar enough with reefing to take care of them by then. If not, I could always simply not add them (I am also planning to add a CUC, although I haven't decided what specific animals it should be composed of, I defiantly want peppermint shrimp).
Does this stocking & order seem like a good idea? Thanks for any replies.
