90g fowlr stocking question

[saltyESQ]

with 90lbs of LS and about 50lbs of LR. and a corallife 125 skimmer. I was also going to add a UV ster.

stocking list:
1 porc puffer
1 stars and stripes puffer
1 humu trigger

I know both puffer willl outgrow my tank and I will deal with it when that occurs. (purchase size will be 5 inches on all fish)

I was wondering if all three will get along?
and is it advisable since these are some messy eaters, to add a second skimmer, I was thinking a romero pro on the back of my tank. (thinking that the coralife is not enough for these 3 little pigs)

You definatley cant add a clean up crew cuz theyd eat em so just have strong flow so poop and food cant settle on the sand bed, with water changes you should be good with only the CSS125, the only thing I advise is if you do a hang on model is to modd it with a new out put tube and get the CSS125 with the needlewheel impeller.

I am not sure whch CSS125 I have, it is all stock and in sump. I was going to leave it in sump because the pump is so ugly hanging in the tank.

please clearifly which mods to the CSS.
thanks

You may want to add a tang to help fight algae.

Adding tang is not a good idea especially the Humu trigger. I saw the humu trigger eat the lion at Tong's shop. That trigger is not a friendly fish

 

[saltyESQ]

tang is also not a good idea bcc my water quality wont be that good with those 3 piggies.
I was still going to use cheato in my fuge.
otherwise I am relying on lots of flow and my skimmer and possibly another skimmer hanging of the back of my tank. if the 2nd skimmer is needed, which is what I need to know

Check this out since so much crap will be flowing through sump tank etc...Id reccomend you to use a 100 micron filter sock and clean it every day or so.

Im sure the Puffers and Trigger can hang together as long as u introduce all 3 at the same time.

The CSS125 swap the pump for a needlewheel pump, or u can simply make a needwheel from a bio ball.

Ill look for teh link in the DIY forum....

When I first had my CSS125 its skimmate was the color of pee. Added new pump, o-ring, and output tube and I was getting some serious pudding out of that bad boy!

Good Luck
