Hahahahaha! What happened to your nano tank where fishes are swimming backwards?? i like those fishes that you have in your pic very nice and expensive!

 

[bullitr]

that right!lol
at least i wont kill it!

I want fish that is hardy as possible
Please let me know your experience with the fishes the you suggested.

 

[firereef]

Make your tank a shark tank! It's big enough

 

[bullitr]

I forgot to mention all of the fish will be on copper qt in 90 gallon tank for 2 months without any hiding spot just sands for the wrasses.
So it needs to be hardy enough to tolerate 2 weeks of copper, prazipro, low salinity and herbtana...

If you went with an Achilles, QT the crap out of it. And make sure its way bigger then the yellow tang. Regal and Queen Angel would be my choice for Angels, and Achilles and maybe a Harlequin Tusk??

I really want a harlequin but it hard to find one that eats frozen food and big enough.

Also I have no luck with regal angel but it's the best angel on reef next to swallow Tail but to hard to keep!

The Achilles from rainbow will be the first and only Achilles that I will consider.
It's been there for 6 months but it's 200 bucks I don't want to kill it.
It will be depressing to see my tank fishless for 2 months but no more shortcut!

Found an ausie HT he's pretty big I'd say around 5 maybe 6". I got em from another reefer last week, so far I haven't seen him eat anything yet. He's been hiding most of the time and only comes out for a few minutes after my main light goes out at night...

 

[bullitr]

I had a couple of aussie but they did not survive when i move and it's really shy.
That is why I don't want to buy one and kill it unless goshi HT will be available.hint hint:wave:

 

[R-nel]

Mine was a little stressed from shipping since he got lost and ended up in Kentucky. That's why he's not eating right now and in hiding. I know they can go for weeks with out eating and he's not being harassed so that helps alot...But I would love to see him get out of soon.

Oh and a pair of small crosshatches. Those fish have some really cool personalities after watching them in Steves big tank.

 

[wickedfish]

Love Harlequins, mine did a dolphin jump and ended up in my overflow, (LFS lost my lid came 2 days too late!)

He made it for 4 weeks more but it was a huge decline and ultimately he met his maker. He was and is my favorite fish to watch. Swims cool and are lazy, mine would nap alot.

I like the cross hatch triggers, if you have the cheese. You have the swim room.

 

[bullitr]

Cross hatch is nice too...

I think i will go with the which ever is healthier and more available*
For Angels
Emperor ( orange tail)
Majestic
*Queen or asfur

Tangs
Blonde naso
*orange shoulder or tenetti if available
Purple tang

If I feel lucky then Achilles and aussie HT both available now from rainbow but with a hefty price tag!

 

[wickedfish]

GL Bro,

If you post a "who wants to sell me your fish?"

I am sure you will get a good and healthy mix without the stress.

My suggestion is - add all fish, especially the tangs, at the same time. If possible, remove the corals from your main tank so if there is any problems with diseases, you can treat them in the main tank, i.e., hypo-salinity, heat, meds, ect.... And, then add the corals back later. Most of the time fish tend to get sick because they stress out. Putting them in the quarrantine and then back is not a good ideas if you're adding a bunch of fish at the same time. It only makes sense if you adding one or two new fish once in a while....
