I have read through some of the primers and really appreciate the time and effort it took to create those. It's awesome!
I have only started to look at my "fish stocking plan" for my 55g. It's 4 foot long, can't remember the other dimentions, I think 18 wide and 12 tall or visa versa.
It would be interesting to see a list of reef safe fish by size of aquarium.
I know there's probably an invariable number of combinations of reef fish for any size tank, but, to be able to say, these fish are best suited for 55g, or 75g, or 90g, or 29g, and so on, would also help take some of the guesswork out of choosing a wrong fish.
I would like some not so common (easy to keep) fish, obviously a pair of clowns, and some fun fish with personality.
I wouldn't mind an anenome (much further down the road) and maybe an urchin (if they're reef and anenome safe) along with some LPS corals.
Just having a selection of fish types to choose from for each tank size I would think would be beneficial to all.
I have a SW aquarium for dummies book that has some facts of what fish are reef and for different sizes of tanks, but as the primers indicated, most documentation is outdated and/or invalid for the typical home aquarium.
And a LFS will tell you anything to sell you something. For me, I have a 55g with around 80lbs of rock, give or take 5lbs.
