55g Reef

[SourAngelfish]

Okay I've changed my plans again... The 55 gallon is now going to be a reef tank, so I made another list.

Lyretail Anthias 1
Skunk Clownfish 2
Hector's goby 1
Fairy/Flasher Wrasse 1
Aiptasia eating filefish 1
Chalk Bass 1
Barnacle Blennies 3

The aiptasia eating filefish depends on whether or not I have an aiptasia problem, I also have room for him in another tano if he decides to nip corals, any thoughts? Also the sump will be 30-40 gallons so the total amount of water is about 80-90 gallons. I was also looking for some butterflies, but they look to challenging. Any suggestions?

That list should be good.

A longnose butterfly isn't as delicate as a copperband and would be fine in a 55g.

Would the longnose be good in addition to that stocking list, or would I have to switch it with something?

A large longnose hawk may hunt the barnacle blennies.
