Hello Reefers, I have my Christmas and birthday gifts coming in today or tomorrow and I'm debating how to place them in display tanks once they're ready. I have two potential tanks, each the same size but with existing inhabitants. Both tanks are established 60X24X24. 150 gallons each.

Tank 1.
Scopas Tang, Powder Brown Tang, Copperband, and a 6 line wrasse.
Tank 2
Two Ocellaris Clowns, A Yellow Tang, Two Spot Foxface, Hippo Tang, Sail fin Tang, Royal Gramma.

The wrasses coming in are as follows:
Line Spot
Exquisite
Mc Coskers
Carpenters

In addition I have these coming in same order:

Emperor Angel Juvenile
Flame Angel
Blue Throat Trigger
Flame Hawkfish
Magnificent Foxface
I've been referring to the Marine Fishes pocket Guide but would like additional input.

Update:
All four of the surviving fish along with the two replacement fish are eating well.
this is the current list:
Emperor Angel
Magnificent Foxface
Male Blue throat trigger
Exquisite Wrasse
Flame Angel
Flame Hawk

I did notice what appeared to be cloudy fins on the Emperor along with a couple white dots. I've started Copper Safe at 1.90 in the quarantine tank.
I've noticed no flashing or behavioral changes.
I should point out that these were all acclimated and not quarantined fish.
