75G stocking help

[DMVReefer]

Hey guys,

i'm finally upgrading to a bigger tank with a sump and i'm a bit stuck on what to stock it with so i'm hoping someone with more experience can help me come up with a good list of fish to put in the tank. it's an Innovative Marine 75G INT. i'll post some links of the tank to give an idea of the setup.

What kind of fish do you like?

Is more small fish better, or a few large fish?

Great question. i'm looking for a good balance but would mainly want a yellow tang with a mix of smaller fish. what would you recommend? the only fish i currently have are my clownfish pair.

Royal gramma adds some nice color cardinals..pajama or banghi are mellow and colorful, wrasses are great for bug prevention but say goodbye to crabs snails ect, a gobie or a blenny. Someone said a mandarin but you will need a lot of pods to feed one.

haha yeah i've kept mandarins before so it'll be a long time before i'd introduce one. i've always wanted to keep a gramma so that's a great idea. would love to see them swim upside down. i wanted to go for a small group of fish so the cardinals might be safe but i was hoping someone would recommend some anthias. i'm not too familiar with them though.

I have anthias and they are great but I’m not sure if a 75 is big enough maybe someone can add to it

Also they can be picky eaters I used mysis in the beginning now they chow everything

Chromis School too.

Blennies have personality.
