new 300 gal fish list

[Corwise]

Good morning I'm buying a used 300 gal tank with an 80 gal sump. It's 6 ft long, 3 ft deep, and about 3 feet high (don't have the exact height). I'm looking to do a soft coral (Ieathers) and would like some clowns/anemone pairing. My current plan:

Initial:
4-6 Ocellaris Clowns

After a month or two:
Wrasse (banana or two six line)
2 Dwarf angel (was planning on bicolor but read those might be coral unfriendly)
2 Dragon Gobie

6 month point:
3 Anemone for clowns
Sailfin Tang
Purple Tang
Naso Tang
Pink Tail Trigger

Tank will have a decent amount of rock for hiding and caves. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

My 300 has double this I think. Only one pair of maroon clowns. Tried adding a pair of super black PNG Percula’s. It didn’t work out. The male (maroon) would hide on the right side overflow tower. But when the Percula’s where put in, the punk decided to go ballistic and almost killed my female Percula’s! The female Maroon oddly was not that bad with them considering. Even did an acclimation box, and male maroon was like a crazy monster. The minute I took them out of the tank he went back to hiding until I got the big 10-12” Sherman nem in the tank.

So a heads up with the clown fish. If two pair it can be possible to make it work with the 3rd wheel clown haha. But at times the two that bonded can end up killing the 3rd wheel.

As for your tang list you’re fine.

I have 12-14 tangs in my tank. Lost track a while back. Haha. Multiple ancanthrus , and zebrasoma, a sailfin, and bristletooth. They have their squabbles, but with plenty of food, and now algae growing in my tank they are keeping busy grazing most of the day. Feed more throughout the day, but smaller portions.

I wanted to fast my whole tank, being my fish I would say are overweight, and that was such a bad idea! The beginning of the next day I through they will be killing each other! It was nuts! I got food in the tank and it as all good almost instantly. Such a crazy experience. I realized feeding more but smaller portions is the key for me anyways.

I have a harem of flame dwarf angels, and a pair of lemon peel angels in a 200 gallon tank. I have leathers mushrooms, star polyps, and anemones that the dwarf angels don’t pick at. I think it’s very important to have lots of rock for them to pick at and hide in. I like your list, if you do go with Dwarf angels, I find they pick at algae as good or better than my purple, yellow, tomini, and Hippo tangs.
