Hello, I am making a 132 gallon display tank (total volume 212 gallon) with measurements 60"x22"x24"high (150/55/60h centimeters) with good filtration and I am thinking about stocking it (currently have 2 clowns, flame angel, flame hawkfish and 1 cardinal) my list for now is this:

What do you think about it. I am up for suggestions changes or any oppinion you have that you think it will be better :)
 
3 tangs and angels is way too much for your tank IMO. Pick one of those tangs and I think you could get away with it. Lots of potential coral eaters in there too. Its kind of a gamble every time you add an angel to a reef. You are gambling a lot of times…

Also, with the exception of the clowns, you have a bunch of fish that all like to occupy the middle of the tank and swim freely in the water column. You might want to look into some fish for the bottom and rocks, like gobies, blennies, mandarins, basslets, wrasse, etc. It will add more character and interest to the tank, help keep things clean, and make a more peaceful tank.
 
It being a shorter tank I think youre asking for problems with that many tangs, six foot rule is the best practice. If it were me I would pick between the gem and purple, not do the hippo (they get huge) and go with the tomini and chocolate if you really want it, so 3 tangs total.

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
