Hi everyone! Getting antiquated with the hobby, last time I had an aquarium was in the late '80s.. Yes, i'm that old..lol. I had a verson of a FOWLR tank (108 gal), under gravel filter/powerhead config with a large fluval container filter. Tube lighting, home build stand. Over 3 years of ownership I ended up with a Miniatus Grouper (my favorite), Radiata Lion, Snowflake Moray, Naso, Achilles, and pwdr brown Tangs, Copperband, Clown Trigger, and Emperer angle. A few othes as well that i cant exactly remember.

I introduced them one at a time and never had an issue with food or compatibility. Now a days, with so much info available, I might not have mixed some of these. Lucky I guess.

That said, looking to finish a fish room in my basement for another FOWLR so you'll see me lurking around and asking questions. Its super exciting to get back in the hobby :-)
