Hi all, I have upgraded from a previously small 15G cube tank to now a 50 Gallon 2 feet cube and was planning my stock and wanted to get some feedback and recommendations. All the weeks mentioned are after cycling

Week 1: Snails and Shrimp
Week 2: Midas Blenny and Firefish
Week 3: Bristletooth Tang
Week 5: Percula Clowns

Week 15/20- Diamond Watchman Goby and maybe other inverts during the interim.

I am open to suggestions and feedback on my plan. Is that overstocked ? Can I get in more fish ? what else would go well with these.

I wouldn't recommend a tang in a cube. They need room to roam.

Thank you, would you recommend anything that looks as stunning as them? I was thinking of getting the smallest Bristkletooth and plans for a tang upgrade in 18 months.

My flame angel is pretty colorful. If actually going to upgrade should be fine though.

Thanks again, aren’t flame angels going to nip as softies and lps ? Mine will predominantly be a torch, mushroom and zoa tank coral wise.

Mine hasn't been an issue. However many fish are considered "at your own risk" because you never can tell.
