Looking for any advice, concern or issues with my proposed stocking for a new 7ft tank.
Was not looking to add Clowns to this tank, my blood sucking duo in the old tank is enough.
Tangs:
Angelfish:
Wrasse:
Its a lot of wrasses. I referred to the wrasse guys list, so the fairys are all within separate complexes.
Others:
Mixed thoughts on a school of zebra dartfish. Some forum responses show this might not be an issue to have multiples, others say caution or do not.
Question is whether i can even get Zebra's here in Australia, they appear to be rarely sold.
Backup Fish:
These are other fish i am concidering if some of the above are simply not available to be purchased in Australia.
In terms of introduction I am thinking five waves;
Cheers.

- Royal Gramma
- Randall's Assessor
- Lyretail Anthias (low on list)
- Midas Blenny
- Some clownfish
- Purple Tilefish (instead of Zebra's if they are not available)
- Flame Hawkfish (probably not - likely to kill shrimp)
- New Guinea Wrasse (Black-backed Tamarin) (Anampses meleagrides) (If yellow-breasted tamarin is not available)
In terms of introduction I am thinking five waves;
- Dartfish + assessor
- Flasher/Fairy wrasses + red line cleaner shrimp
- The larger wrasses + foxface
- Angels
- Tangs + blenny
Cheers.
