I am considering a few different tank ideas while saving money, one was a 170gallon predator tank. I was planning on feeding the predators Molly's raised in the refugium in addition to carnivore pellets, but would the following work in a 5'x2.5' tank.
1 blue spotted toby puffer
3 dwarf angels:
1 flame angel
1 lemonpeel angel
1 black nox angel
2-3 larger angels:
(Regal?
Arabian
Flag fin)
3 tangs:
(Purple
Whitetail
Convict)
Fuzzy Dwarf lionfish
Harlequin tusk
Bursa trigger
Coral hogfish
2 smaller groupers:
(Harlequin cod
Coney grouper)
I don't see anyone being a poor fit, and asked a professional aquarist on YouTube who said that would be absolutely fine, but just figured a second opinion would never hurt.
