Also, I would suggest slowing down and learning about quarantining. Nothing good happens quickly in this hobby.

Odds are good that the Indo Elegance will die, taking the other one one with it.

You will also rue the day you introduce those green striped mushrooms to your tank too. Through reproduction, they will eventually make their way toward your most prized stonies and smother them.

Next.

+ The jury is still out as to whether the Harlequin Tusk is Reef Compatible.

Agree with the above. Good advice from Steve concerning your fish wish list and stocking slowly. Green stripe mushrooms, for me, have been the most prolific of the different color morphs. I'll never have them again. Even if you try to keep them secluded to their own rock, some will detach to float off and attach somewhere else.

I hate mushrooms. They will win almost any battle with other corals to the detriment of the other coral. Impossible to eradicate as well.

Naso Blonde Tang - Too Big
Blue Hippo Tang - Good for a while in your tank start with a small one.
Harlequin Tusk - Too Big & Eats Invertebrate
Flame Angelfish - Will Pick Some Don't Most Do
One Spot Foxface - Will Or Can Pick At LPS & I had one go after SPS.
Marine Betta - will eat your small fish

Don't be too dissuaded from a marine betta. Ours is out all of the time that is once we got rid of his spaz tank mate, a one spot foxface as it turns out. As far as eating other fish as long as you stay away from fish that will fit in his mouth, you should not have a problem.

However, they do eat ornamental shrimp, so it would be a choice between a marine betta and a fire shrimp although you would not be able to keep a fire shrimp with the harlequin tusk either. We have a very large coral banded shrimp in with our marine betta.
