stocking a 210

[Aslmx]

I need suggestions stocking a 210g 7'x2'x2'. I will have 2 clowns, 1 melanarus wrasse, 1 small scopas, 1 small tomini coming from my 75g. I know I want a naso and my wife wants some yellows and a blue hippo. Any other suggestions that would work? I would like a pair of black clowns but didnt know if that would work with the other ocellaris clowns. Other tang or colorful fish suggestions that play well with others?

Is this a fish only or reef?

Naso, some yellows and a blue hippo seems too much for a 210g. I would also not have any more than 2 clowns.

If you do add a yellow I would wait to the end - may not take kindly to new tankmates

Dwarf angel, Other wrasses, blue throat or niger trigger, aussie harlequin tusk?

Good luck

Great thoughts.

While the fish suggested thus far are gorgeous, I think more smaller fish will look better. Getting smaller fish like fairy or flasher wrasses, anthias, cardinalfish, etc. will enhance the look of the tank and make it look bigger at the same time. Large fish make a tank look smaller, that is, unless the tank is extremely large (public aquarium size). JMO.

Stocking can be endless depending on what your preference is...but I do agree w/ above statements of probably finding more smaller fishes because the big ones can make the tank look smaller after a few months or years of growing. Here is my 210 w/ a whole bunch of fishes...I like tangs as you can probably tell but I would probably go a more anthias and wrasses next time...good luck!!!
