180 FOWLR Stock List

[bryanr]

Anyone see any compatibility issues

Right now I have the following in the tank

Niger Trigger
HumaHuma Trigger
Orange Shoulder Tang
Sailfin Tang
Lavender Tang
Queen Angel
Harlequin Tusk

I'm shutting down another tank and plan to add the inhabitants to the 180

Pink Tail Trigger
Dog face Puffer
Snowflake EEL
Some type of Parrot fish (juvenile coloring either a stoplight or princess)
Lyretail Wrasse

Within a year all fish will be going to a 240.

Future add -- Hippo Tang

Thats a huge bioload, even for a 240 gallon

I understand the bioload is high. I have over 200lbs of rock, fuge and skimmer rated for almost double the tank size (skimming wet with a waste collector), plus water changes to keep nutrients down. Right now the largest fish is the eel, followed by the dogface. The rest are 2-5" (I know they will grow)

I guess I should have said most of the fish will go to a 240 within a year, as I will have 2 other tanks in the basement. A 100g cube my reef with mated clowns (36x36x20) and I plan on keeping the 180 or something similar when I setup the 240.

I almost forgot I have a 90g wavefront in the basement just holding live rock for the 240. I could put a couple of fish in it, but it is not drilled so it just has a HOB fuge and HOB Reef Octopus 2000 Skimmer. Any recommendations on which would be OK in there for a few months?
