Thoughts/Concerns?

 

[Spare time]

Emperor eats coral.

I'd also consider a bonded pair of diamond gobies, Bella gobies, tiger gobies, gold head, or any other sand sifter

yea def wudnt do the emporer if this is gonna house super expensive euphyllia. i think regals are safer and even more safe genicanthus. i love to see trios of watanabei or bellus angels

More tangs! You need more tangs!

 

[nereefpat]

I would skip the sohal for size and aggression reasons, and add a couple other tangs instead. Maybe a P. hepatus, kole, and a powder brown.

Another way to do the big tangs/butterfly/angel would be to have a single gem and several pyramid butterflies.

Skip the sohol- phsyco maybe 2/3 pyramid butterflies

just one opinion

 

[JCM]

An emperor in an LPS tank will quickly be an emperor in a fish only tank.

Sohal tangs get very large and aggressive.

Not familiar with the reef safeness of that butterfly.

The rest looks good.

 

[Oldsman]

You could always swap your royal gramma for the black cap basslet, a very beautiful fish .

 

[Lost in the Sauce]

Sailfin and Foxface would add nicely.

 

[Squidward]

I would avoid Sohal and Sailfins. Sohal are the meanest tangs of all. Sailfins get extremely huge. Too big for 6ft tanks.

Get an Achilles or Powder Blue instead...of course qurantine them as needed.
