Fish Selection for 110 w/mobile inverts

[Dr Colliebreath]

My 110 w/35 gal sump has been running around 6 weeks. I have the SRO XP2000 skimmer, live rock, 2-3" live sand, some hermit crabs and snails, plus 3 peppermint shrimp, 1 fire shrimp, and 1 cleaner shrimp, plus 2 emerald crabs.

I have a small percula clown and a sunrise dottyback in quarantine with Cupramine and Prazi.

I plan to add the following fish in this order after quarantining them:

Raccoon butterfly
Longnose butterfly
Flame angel
Tang - powder blue, purple or hippo (1 only - can't decide whether to chance the PBT)

I am also considering adding one or two of the following:

Blue spot jawfish
Rainford goby
Helfrichi firefish
Six line wrasse

This would give me 4 sizable fish, the clown, and 2 or 3 or maybe 4 relatively small fish. Too many??

Are there any fish on the list that are incompatible with each other or the shrimp? From what I have read, there don't seem to be any particular incompatibilities but I have seen occasional mild warnings (e.g., the wrasse might bother some docile fish or the jawfish might eat small shrimp).

Some of the dottybacks can be aggressive but the sunrise seems to be less of a threat in this regard. I wonder whether it would bother the goby or firefish.

Thank you.

I don't think the firefish is a very good fit with that list as it will likely be harassed, and the hippo gets too large.

 

[Dr Colliebreath]

I worry about the Rainford being harassed also. What do you think would harass the firefish - the dottyback, or something else?

I hear you on the hippo. The tank is 5' long and I know that is marginal for the PBT.

 

[MCCOOL]

I think the dottyback, as well as the six-line would be an issue for the firefish.

The sunrise dottyback is supposed to be relatively peaceful, but I wondered whether anyone has thoughts on whether it will bother later-introduced butterflies (I prefer to start with smaller specimens.
