I have a 400 gallon tank current live stock is:
2 maroon clownfish
Foxface
Niger trigger
Guinnefowl pufferfish
Green bird wrasse
Princess parrot
Zebra eel
Naso tang
Sailfin tang
Orange stripped Bristol tooth tang
Vlamingi tang
maculiceps tang

I am also thinking a regal and at least 1 other tang and any other fish to be recommended.


I have 500 lbs of rock ad below is the aquascaping so any feedback would be nice

my equipment is 1 maxspect jump 12 k, 1 reef octopus sk 5000, algae scrubber, 4 xf 350s, and 3 ai 26s with the reefbrite attachments.

any recommendations on anything else will be greatly appreciated.

I like the scape, but, I would recommend a few fingers coming out from the scape. Not as tall as on the left side and step them down to blend into the sand bed.

As far as a tang, I would definitely go with an Achilles tang. I have 6 tangs in my tank, which in comparison, is little to yours...LOL!!!

The main change I would make is to open up the scape a little. I know it might be nearly impossible now but it would add a lot of depth to the tank + allow the fish to be more visible

Otherwise, its a nice tank and the fish seem to be very happy!
