Tank, 120 gallon sps reef. 5ft long, 18" wide, 24" tall. 50 gallon sump.

You pick fish from this list,


Red Sea Sailfin tang
Powder blu tang
Orange Shoulder Tang
Half Black Mimic Tang
sunrise dottyback
spotted manderin
purple headed fairy wrasse
yellow flanked fairy wrasse
carpenter flasher wrasse
filimented flasher wrasse
blue flasher wrasse
McCoskers flasher wrasse
red sea mimic blenny
wheeler goby
Trio of Pearly Jawfish

So there you have it. Pick as many as you feel suitable, let me know what you think!
 
Assuming that your are through your cycle and you add the fish slowly I think it doesn't look like a bad list to me, maybe a little over loaded but if you watch your parameters closely you should be able to pull it off. It would look sweet when your done.
 
I do not plan on putting all those fish in the tank. Those are just the choices.

No worries on the cycling and such.
 
Sounds good, my only concern with that list is the wheeler and the jawfish, both occupying the bottom, I could see the jaws whooping up on the wheeler.

these are more fish then most suggest but i think givin thier sizes you should be fine. im all about getting the most out of your tank and still keeping your fish happy, not leaving a tank understocked to play it safe. good luck and the wrasse combos would look sweat.
 
Sounds like a good list, about what I was thinking, but Like you I was thinking it would be a bit much.

The mimic blenny scares me, as many of them are known to eat sps. But I have been a fan of that fish for so long, and always wanted one.

Do you think those flashers would gewt along? I figure if I add several flashers instead of just 2, it would disperse any aggresion more.
 
Flashers will do fine as long as you do not mix two males of the same species or that look a lot a like. (At least in a tank of your size; in a VERY large tank, you could probably do it). However if you want to take advantage of the propensity to flash, a harem would be a better choice instead of multiple species.
