another stocking question

[ct67-72]

I have a 150 with a 20g sump, at the moment I have a 3" yellow tang 3" huma trigger pair of ecellaris (sp?) clown and a longnose hawk. I would like to add a dog face puffer and some tangs, I really like the yellow eye kole, and I definately want a hippo. what else would go well? TIA

A bigger sump

The bio load would be crazy with that many with a 20 sump. How much LR do you have?

 

[ct67-72]

right now about 100 lbs, before any more fish go in however I will have another 100lbs. half of the sump is a fuge with 20lbs of sand and lr. one section with a berlin turbo skimmer and another hang on skimmer on the other side of the tank

Is there anyway to upgrade the sump to be larger and include a big fuge for nutrient export? Puffers are waste machines. Do you like doing water changes often?

P.S. You need to update your current tanks.

Im tight for room with it. I do regular water changes so its not to big of a deal. I know my biggest problem will be the puffer but my girlfriend is dead set on one. I may be able to upgrade the sump but not right away. I guess all I can do is monitor and do water changes accordingly.
