I originally planned to purchase a 210 gallon aquarium, but circumstances have forced me to buy a used 110 instead (but a 210 WILL be in my future at some point)

I had figured my stock list based off a 210, but am wondering what y'all think about housing those fish in a smaller tank, at least for 6-8 months.

Pair of Flame Hawkfish (Have 1 already)
Marine Betta (already have)
Greyfaced moray eel (already have)
Juvenile Hippo Tang 2-4 inches
Pair of Coral Beauty Angels
Pair of Blue Throat Triggers OR 1 Niger trigger
A harem of 4 Lyretail Anthias
A bubbletip anenome
Assorted CuC, at risk of having them being eaten, including 1 small tuxedo urchin
Green star polyp grown on the back glass

I'm on the fence about a harlequin tusk because it eats CuC for snacks.
 
Kinda small for some fish with big appetites and lots of poo. ;)
 
I figured that would be a problem. Salt is relatively cheap though, I have lots of biological aand mechanical filtration.
