Hello all, I'm trying to plan the stock for my 180gal tank, but I'm having trouble finding what I'm looking for.
So far for stock I've decided on
Softies - palythoa, zoa, ricordia and a small rock island of xenia well separated from others
LPS - Galaxea, Wilsoni, Leptoseris, fungia, cynarina, elegance, acan, blasto, frammer, and cyphestrea
inverts - feather worms, squamosa clam, fire shrimp, nassarius, turbos, margaritas, fighting conch, abalone, and chitons
Fish - cling fish, lawnmower, firefish, clown goby, possum wrasse, gramma, naked clowns, dottyback, jawfish
I would like to stick with nano fish, but everything I find is territorial and doesn't get along with others of it's type. Is there any small reef safe fish that can do well in groups, I read chromis, but keep seeing posts where they slowly whittle down their numbers to 1 or 2. Any help would be very appreciated. I don't want to have too low a bio load and I'm hoping to get by without buying larger fish.
also would a 55 gallon sump and 25 gallon refugium be plenty for a 180 gal tank?
please also feel free to educate me on any conflicts in stock I've listed.
