What other fish are you thinking of? It was pretty funny though.

I would really like a pair of Bengai Cardinals, but after reading in TFH about the trashing of their habitat, I'm not so sure anymore.
I'd also like to get either a Flame Angel, Coral Angel (C. bispinosis), or an African Pygmy Angel (C. acanthops).
Instead of the Bengai's, I might go for Pajama or Polka Dot Cardinals, instead.
The only other fish I've got in mind is a Royal Gramma.
So, I guess that's a pair of Cardinals, one Angel and the Royal Gramma.
I'll decide later whether to keep the some/all of the Damsels, later, but I'll definately keep the Goby and get it an Alpheus sp. at some point.
Not sure what all to put in the refugium at this point. Was thinking of Mangrove, but I woke up and decided that wasn't such a good idea.
P.S. Glad to be of service with the typo

Hmm, the Bangai cardinals are threatened in the wild but easily bred in captivity, tank bred specimens are common.

So, you are going for a FOWLR? Almost looks like it's on the verge of reefism Looks good!

Thanks!
Do you know if anyone on the board is breeding the Bengai's?
Was thinking of adding some softies, but sps or lps - haven't decided whether to remortgage or not to get some more lights...

Things are starting to color up and the Tangeroa Goby has decided the Damsels aren't going to eat him and he came completely out of his cave, last night. Unfortunately, I wasn't fast enough with the camera to catch him on the sand, but you can see his head

Hmmm, pictures won't upload - hopefully tonight I can post the updated pics. V.

Okay, here's the frag delivery I got this week from Interior Reef. Chris was a lot of help.
They're real nice, started to open up while I was still acclimating them.
