getting close to starting up a 250 tank, 60Lx36wx27h and putting together a potential fish list. Looking for reef safe fish that won't decimate the pods, snails, hermits and sps. Also concerned about aggression between fish.Did some research but looking for hands on experience for potential problems with the specific fish listed below
Powder blue- can be difficult to acclimate
Yellow tang
Regal or Flame Angel- anyone keeping both? Potential coral nippers
Azure damsel- will the flame or regal pick on it. Ok in a group?
Blue throat trigger- reef safe but unsure about snails & hermits
Candy hog- rearranger of frags, will decimate pod population? Hermit safe?
Threadfin Cardinals for shoaling /schooling effect. Will a group of 7 school?
Leopard wrasse- acclimation issues and voracious pod eaters
Longnose butterfly- any issues with starfish?
Schooling banner fish (diphreutes) - are they truly reef safe? May get too big
Tell me why I should stay away
