What size Tank?

[Daniel62]

Ok, I would like to build a tank around this group of fish
1 Purple Tang
6-8 lyrtails
pr fridmani's
12 threadfin cardinal's
1 midas blennie
1 manderin
trio of Chaetodon paucifaciatus
sixline wrasse
And Some day A Regal
What size tank would this group of fish be comfortable in? Within reason of course LOL and in what order would you add the fish.
The tank will be set up as a reef slope, so say probably 3 ft tall by how long and wide? also if you would like to chime in, what corals would go best/survive with this group. also what inverts would be safe if any.
Thanks

Not 100% sure what those all are but I would think a 240(8X2X2) would be good. i would not recomend a 3ft tall tank because it makes matnece and aquascaping dificult plus if you got a 8X2X2 you would not have to get a custom tank.

I wouldn't do anything less than a 180, the bigger the better.
Order I would do:
1) Anthias
2) Midas Blenny
3) Cardinals
4) Purple Tang
5) Butterflies
6) Sixline
7) Mandarin [after 6 months-year]

Can you elaborate on what 'pr fridmani's' are?

A pair of Fidmani dottyback's
