139 gallon tank 60 inches stocking ideas?

[Reefer2342]

Hi, I am getting the Reefer 525 XL full package tank and was wondering what type of fish could I be looking for?

I had a stocking idea for a 75 gallon reef tank but it ended up flopping. I'm pretty much open for any fish tank stocking ideas but I have a list here of what I was going to get-

Fire angelfish
Pink margin fairy wrasse
Redfin fairy wrasse
Blue dart fish (4)
Tomini tang
Bangai Cardinals (6)
Tiger or diamond goby
Neon goby
Purple fire fish
Mandarin goby
Dwarf moray eel or blue ribbon eel
Ruby red dragonet
Royal Gramma
Sailfin Blenny

For the 139 Im willing for any stocking ideas, including large fish like the cuban hogfish, but I would prefer reef safe. Let me know what you think of this list

hi,welcome to the reef...
i will say eel is going to eat 1/2 of your list in time.

You’ve got a lot of potential jumpers on that list, so some type of lid will be required.

I’d ditch the cardinals, which just sort of hang around, and the mandarin and the dragonet, which can be picky eaters unless they’re captive-bred.

Your tank should be big enough for a Lamarck’s or Japanese swallowtail angel. Both are beautiful, and the Lamarck’s is active and personable.
