Hi all,

I've had my tank up for about 7 months. I had a kole tang but it died. After that I decided I would never add a fish that was even "borderline" the right size for the tank. So as much as I'd love an anthias or a dwarf angel, I gotta use what little self control I have... unless youre able to convince me otherwise :)

What do y'all think of this list and the stocking order? I have a decent pod population btw

Pink bar goby (currently have a pistol)
Radial filefish (captive bred)
Mckosker's flasher wrasse
Flame hawk
Sixline


I know the sixline and flasher are a potential issue. Anyone ever keep the money successfully when adding a sixline last? Or should I just give up on that dream? If a sixline won't work, would a dottyback be an acceptable sub?

My goal with this stock is mostly diversity: diversity in body, behavior, and strata of the tank.
 
I think a dwarf angel would be fine in there as long as you don't mind SPS nipping (if you have SPS). I would not bother with a 6-line. not worth the headache. What about clowns or cardinal fish?

I do have some sps, so I don't really wanna risk it. Considering a clown. I feel like everyone has one and i like the idea of having a somewhat unusual tank, but they are super adorable and also very hardy.
