Hi all-

Ive recently upgraded to a Red Sea Reefer 450. It has been running for about 3 months now. I wanted everyone's opinion on what order to add the following fish.

2 Clownfish
3 Lyetail Anthias
1 Niger trigger or Blue Throat
1 Purple Tang (I know he will probably be last)

Thanks in advance for any and all feedback.
 
I would do anthias, clowns, purple then trigger. Most friendly to last. Jmo
 
anthias, then the clowns, tang, last trigger. Want to put them in order of least aggressive. Tang after clowns as its larger, also want to give clowns a couple minutes to find their territory. Whatever you end up doing make sure the trigger is last to go in
