I've had saltwater aquariums for 20+ years, dabbled in corals, but recently decided to get serious about a reef tank. In the fall I upgraded from a Biocube 29 to a 75g. I had 2 tomato clowns, a scissor tail damsel, and a few random corals that made the transition.

I now have 1 Tomato clown, the damsel, melanurus, yellow & purple, orange back, foxface, starry blenny, with a lubbock, pintail, and a longnose hawkfish in QT. I have several euphyllia, 1 colony of zoas, and softies.

Fun story: In the Biocube the clowns and the damsel were best buds, no agression at all. When I moved them to the 75 it was all out war. Eventually the smaller clown was chased into the filter. By the time I found him it was too late. With the addition of the wrasses things calmed down, but lately the clown has started going after the orange back (sigh).

Fun story #2: My biocube is now in my wife's 7th grade science classroom where it houses guppies, elodea, and more freshwater snails than you can count.
