Hi, I am preparing to set up my new tank and am creating a list of fish for the stocking. My tank is a 120g five-foot-long with 20-inch depth and 24 height and is going to be a mixed reef. Here is what I have come up with.

1 Bluethroat trigger
1 Regal Angelfish
1 Kole tang
1 leopard wrasse
1 Pair of clowns
4 Dartfish
3 random anthias
2 orchid Dotty backs
2 kauderns cardinalfish
2 two spot gobies
1 yellow head jawfish
Does anybody know if this will work with my tank? please make suggestions or give advice:)

Your list is getting better.

What dartfish are you thinking of? Some may be too timid to thrive with these tankmates.
Whichever you choose, they will need to be introduced long before more rambunctious tankmates so they will be very comfortable prior to new additions.

Also, a mesh cover is mandatory on all tanks, but even more important with dartfish, especially with dartfish housed with larger fish. They will jump , 100% guaranteed.

I was thinking of firefish dart fish or purple dartfish.
And I have a good mesh netting over my tank;)

Firefish wont tolerate other firefish u less they are a true mated pair, so only one of those.
 

When to mix up fish meal: When was the last time you tried a different brand of food for your reef?
