Watanabei Angelfish - Jumpers?

After removal of a Purple Tang one of the females turned into a male giving me a trio.
I lucked-out and was able to source 3 female Watanabeis, 2 Bella Gobies and a Magnificient Foxface. If i can keep these alive and healthy, i would reach quite close to intended fish-bioload. Maybe 2 more Bimac Anthias and a CopperBand Butterfly (only if I can buy one that eats frozen-zoos) and I will be tapped out.

... Now, to keep these guys alive. I made the following reef adjustments, and am keeping my finger's-crossed.

1. Understandably, with the Bella Gobies, my plans of staying lid-less is history. So, the lid is a permanent fixture now.

2. I extended the concept of an acclimation-box and temporarily
cordoned off a 30-gallon area from my 180 Gallon reef. The cordoned-off section houses a rock infested with amphipods, for whatever that's worth.

3. I am contuing to grow brine-shrimp in two seperate mini-tanks (ref: attached video)

Wish me luck!
