Hello,

I have been doing a lot of research and planning for a future 210 gallon tank. I just wanted to receive some stocking suggestions.

Currently on my list:
x2 Ocellaris Clowns
x1 Scopas Tang
x1 Yellow Tang
x1 Tomini Tang
x1 Blue Hippo Tang
x1 Blue Throat Trigger
x 1 Aptasia Eating File fish
x1 Royal Gramma
and a couple cleaner shrimp.

If possible, I would like to add some wrasses and/or gobies as well.
Any thoughts on the current plan?

Looks good, although prob sub the scopas or yellow for a Atlantic Blue .... IME those get along pretty well ...I have a very similar combo: Scopas, Two spot and Atlantic in mine

And you still have room for add-on or growth ...maybe chill here for now

Thanks for the response! I am not actually in the process of building the system, just doing research and developing a plan for this mixed reef. Once I start adding fish, I will add a couple at a time and put less aggressive fish in first.

Aren't Acanthurus known bullies, though? I originally wanted a powder brown in there, as well, but quickly dropped it once I found out they are frequently aggressive.

Any suggestions on wrasse and goby species?

I had a mckosker wrasse that was super peaceful and colorful in a 50gallon, but he might get lost or look a little small in that large of a tank. Im looking for a wrasse or two for my 150 build, too. I have seen a lotta good ones, but i think you should check out the yellow coris wrasse or the christmas wrasse, those are too ive been eyeing for my own build. Good luck.
