How many fish in a 50?? :)

Good to hear the infection is under control.
I like the temp idea. Something to store for future needs.

Brad, I don't think the aggression will be too bad as they won't really have their own space to defend. Numerous daily feedings and two nori stations at opposite ends of the tank will help. Maybe a little Texada Timewarp mixed in with the nori can't help but mellow those guys out.

With so many big fish in such a tank, ammonia, oxygen, and aggression will be an issue. However those things can be dealt with easily. For ammonia problem, get yourself some prime or simiar ammonia binding thingy. For oxygen, buy a big airpump (they are cheap , less than the price for one fish). For aggression, get some egg-crate and make some tank dividers so you can separate the aggressors.
Good luck.

The tank is fully cycled with half a dozen fish now, then adding the rest later this week, if I get time to pick them up. I've added some more rock, will arrange it to provide lots of different mini territories, the aquaclear really agitates the surface and I can add more pumps. The biggie is managing interfish relationships. Worst case I can add dividers to section off fights.
