Btw, my niger trigger is one of my favorite fish in my tank. Just gets a lil moody when feeding. He's the boss of the tank.
 
I agree with most everything said above, except for the fox face which I think will be fine as well. I would skip the powder blue and go for a trigger as well. I have a pair of black and white clowns with a tusk with no issues also.

Ok thanks! Any specific reason on swapping the Tang for a Trigger other than personal taste?
 
^Agreed. Especially if the clowns are in the tank before the tusk.

If copperbands are given a chance to get used to captive life, and can get used to aquarium foods, they can be quite hardy..

So do you think I can add the clowns and the CBB in ADDITION to my current list, or would that be pushing it?
Or did you mean in lieu of other fish?

I think the tank should be able to handle the bioload of them in combination withthe other fish.
 
IME the powder blue being prone to disease and aggression would be my reasoning for not having it on the list
 
All fish tanks with Harlequin Tusks just beware of your inverts. One of my favorite fishes other than the Dragon moray eel. I've lost 2 Harlequin tusks in my aquarium. One by a yellow head eel the other Domino damsel . Yes I'm looking to get another one

Yep. The only invert Im really planning on is the long spined urchin.

That's kinda where Im at right now...I'm between a niger trigger and a powder blue tang. I am also thinking of going ahead and adding the black ocellaris pair to the list.
 
Really cool list. CUC is really cheap and I bet your tusk wouldn't mind eating some fresh food every now and then, who knows, maybe if you keep your fish well fed he would't even bother them.
