Here's what I would like to do in my new tank setup - it's an 80 gallon with a 26 gallon sump.

midas blenny
neon dottyback (he's in my nano now)
Flame hawkfish
watchman goby/pistol shrimp
2x Clowns and a hosting nem
3x Banghi Cardinals
six line wrasse

I would like one "Feature fish" and have paired it down to one of the following:

Dragonet (would depend on copepods population and would have to be added much later)
scribble boxfish (I'm insane)
marine betta (do not know if i can have the proper rock work setup and I'm concerned he'll grow too large for that tank - max adult size is 8")


My game plan is to keep most of the fish added below an adult size of 6". My concern is in what order to add them. If anyone has any insight or suggestions I will take them. Tank is currently cycling. Thanks.

How long is the tank? Also are you playing on reef or FOWLR?

It’s 24x24x32 80 gallon cube. Mixed reef. The more I think about it the more I think that Francis the dottyback will prob get moved with the nano to my house. He’s a jerk.
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
