40 breeder stocking

[teddymoos]

Yo, I'm looking for some suggestions to complete the stocking of my 40 breeder. Currently housing a yellow tang, bangaii cardinal, 2 clowns, orange diamond goby, 6 line and fire fish. Open to any reef safe suggestions.

Do you plan on rehoming the tang? I imagine it will be an issue in that size of tank towards new fish

Had a Midas Blenny in my 40 gallon and when I upgraded he came with. Cool little fish.

And despite what some people say there are some damsels that are not the spawn of satan, I have Azure and Rollands and have been looking at Talbots, granted now I have more than a 40 gallon but I feel like a couple Azure would have worked in my 40 gallon.

I love the Pygmy angels, specifically the cherub due to cuteness and it being the cheapest of the dwarfs. Mine has never given me any issues and I have sps, lps, goni, scoly, acros, acans, zoas, maxima clam, etc etc. Got mine for $16 at LFS.

Re-home the tang and you're full with what you have, IMO

Yes it will be rehomed. I have a friend building a 160 that will be the future home.

Other than the tang which is a short term renter, maybe a Royal Gramma for color.
