I’m pulling the trigger on a ProClear 230 (180 6x2x2 display) within the next month and I’m obsessing over the planning. I’m tempted to go full SPS, but I’m guessing it will be mixed reef. I put together an initial stocking list. Please let me know your thoughts on compatibility, bio load, etc… I think I’m on the light side, but it’s the biggest tank I’ve done so I’m not sure. Open to any suggestions on additions or subtractions. Here is the list and the order I’m planning to stock. All fish will go through QT. How many do you typically add at a time in a tank this size.

1. Black Storm Clownfish Pair
2.Midas Blenny
3. Flame Hawkfish
4. Orange Back Fairy Wrasse
5. Scott’s Fairy Wrasse
6. One Spot Fox Face
7. Watanbei Angelfish Pair
8. Diamond Goby
9. Black Cap Basslet
10. Coral Beauty Angelfish
11. Kole Tang
12. Purple Tang
13. Mandarin Goby
 
That list is fine. As for bioload you have plenty more room for more fish.
 
-Copperband butterfly
-Group of Anthias, or Chrysiptera chromis for color and movement.
-flasher wrasse?
-I like royal grammas
-red waspfish are neat
