What order??

[jlcoop277]

So I finished my plumbing on my DT and will start filling today.
Once the cycle is done who should I move first?
Stock list. all less than 4"
Porc Puffer
Niger Trigger
Yellow tang
Desj SF Tang
Lawnmower blennie

I plan on adding a pair of true percs and maybe a mandarin.

I do plan on moving the Sail fin first so he can get some size on him as my yellow has been beating him up a bit.

Any rhym or reason to the order after that?

A yellow and a Sailfin tang will probably never get along. As they mature, one will almost certainly destroy the other; regardless of tank size. Tangs of this genus (Zebrasoma) hate each other and should never be mixed. But, groups of 3 or more can work in very large tanks----just never two.

It's a 5' 100g. I know it's not a long term home, planning an upgrade within the next year. Hopefully 10' tank. So far the yellow keeps both the puffer and the Niger in Line. And the yellow is the smallest.

Well that sucks. Need to figure out which I like better then.
Would 3 yellows work out if I added all 3 together?

Only in a bigger tank. I keep 3 PTs in a 240, just two were constantly at war. Read what LA says about PTs. IMO, its quite accurate. (Assuming the 125 min tank size is a 6' tank).http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=15+43+372&pcatid=372
