Here is currently what i have in my tank

2 normal clownfish
2 black and white clownfish
2 candy hogfish
3 blue green chromis
Purple firefish
Yellow tang
Regal tang
Royal Gramma
Carpenters flasher wrasse
target mandarin

Here is what i am still wanting to get. I had to get the yellow tang because my hogfish were picking on my wrasse and he wouldn't come out.

Purple tang
Naso Tang
Blue Throated Trigger
Flame Angel
Anthias not sure how many probably 3-5
Copperband Butterfly
Longnose HAwkfish
Lawnmower Blennie
Mystery wrasse
3 more chromis
and maybe 2 Bangai Cardinals as there is someone on can reef selling babies

These are the fish i still want to get i just don't know which ones to get next i hope to get 5 or 6 more i will be quarantining most of them depending on where i get them from. I have a 20 gallon for quarantine and I'm worried its not big enough. Any input on this will help

And also want to add a few Blue and yellow neon Gobies

That's a pretty big list for a 150 30 fish, totally do-able but maybe sort through the ones you really want so the cooler ones arnt overshadowed

Ya i was thinking the same thing in my mind i kind of know the ones that i don't want that bad.

I had the same thing when i first stocked my 125 i had like 19 fish and there was a lot i was just buying everything, then i got ich and now after that whole ordeal and QT and Hypo I'm down to the 4 that made it.

Got my QT all set up(learned my lesson) and i was like ok maybe this time around ill only pick the awesome fish that i want and go for more of a Quality over quantity

Just my 2 cents

Also how do your 4 clowns get along i was thinking of maybe doing that

There still small but they get along great they were all added at the same time and they couldn't be happier. They all hangout together during the day then at night they split off into there pairs Happy as can be

Here is my updated list after lots of thought most fish will be babies like my regal tang

Purple tang
Naso Tang
Blue Throated Trigger
Flame Angel
2 squareback anthias
some sort of sifting gobie
Mystery wrasse
3 more chromis

Does anyone have any thoughts on Powder Blue Tangs instead of the naso tang, I think it will be happier as it is much smaller and i won't have to worry about getting rid of it in a few years. I know that they are Ich magnets but do they all get it? any advice would be appreciated.
