I've got one with a volitan lionfish, snowflake moray eel, tomatoe clownfish and purple tang.
So you're planning a fish list and you want it for aptasia control? Am I understanding this right, you have aptasia already and you dont even have fish yet? Or you're planning on having aptaisa? Sounds pretty crazy to me either way. Why not get rid of it before adding fish by using peppermint shrimp or just do a very good job of quarantining everything you buy so that you dont have to deal with aptasia in the first place. I've been fighting with aptasia for 4 years. The only perfect solution is to stop aptasia from ever establishing itself in your tank by quarantining.

As far as fish go, right now I have a little yellow-tailed blue damsel that I will catch when I am transferring stock from the 50 gal to the 90 gal. Not much sense in stressing him out for the sake of rushing fish. I don't really want to make alot of mistakes that are preventable, so I like to plan for the future.

My copperband would really like to eat flake and pellets because he sees the angel and the foxface go nuts over them but he just can't get past the fact he considers them inedible

That's a really good description. I've managed to "trick" mine into sampling flake by mixing a little flake into a lot of mysis, but he realizes his mistake every time. "Ptoo! Ptoo! Yuck, that wasn't food! What is wrong with you guys!!!"

Mine is currently in with a angel that is hazing him pretty good, a cleaner wrasse, a royal gramma (that was in with him in the established tank I bought them from) and a clown goby... He eats mysis, and picks at the rocks, but must not be picking at aiptasia as I don't have any in my nano..
He has become my favorite fish out of the group. VERY active after lights out..
