stocking a 210

[ThaBeast]

During my recent unplanned and forced move I took advantage of the opportunity to go in a slightly different direction with my tank. I am looking to add my final fishes and would appreciate input on selection.

I currently have in the tank:

Copperband Butterfly
large engineer goby
trio of centropyge argi
trio of squammipinnis anthias
pair of fridmani dottybacks
pair of A. sandaracinos
green clown goby
Randall's goby
swissguard basslet
pair of banggai cardinals
Yellow coris wrasse

I wish to add:
trio of Lineatus fairy wrasse
trio of Golden Rhomboid wrasse
pair of spotted mandarins

Am I overloading this tank, or going to have aggression problems?

I don't see any problems with this in that big of a tank. The manderins might have to wait until your tank matures more.

You will also have to have a cover over the tank to be able to keep wrasses.

cover already installed, tank has been set up since July 2009-just moved it across town last month. My rock came from an established tank and hasn't been out of water for more than a couple of minutes ever since I bought it, never had a cycle.

I actually would like to buy the spotted mandarins from an ORA dealer, but the current shipments I've been offered are too young to sex

Have you already found the Lineatus and rhomboid trios? If so, I say do it.
Using an acclimation container helps big time with wrasses. That way they aren't so scared when introduced.
