70 gallon stock ideas

[ParkerK]

Getting someone’s Red Sea Reefer 250 and I have a 32 gallon cube now.
I already have a
Royal Gramma
Fairy Wrasse
2 Clowns

What else can I put in it ?
I was thinking maybe a blue tang and a kole tang? Or an angel or two? Some dwarf angels? Leave some ideas and feedback!

Nothing wrong with a few tangs

Yellow and blue are the go to in my opinion

How many would you recommend? The sump and all that stuff is super nice and handles bigger bioloads so it can handle a decent amount of fish! Any ideas on particular tangs?

I'd say 3 max. I've kept 4 zebrasomas in there at the same time and they did fine. 2 purple, 2 yellow, 1 blue

Hope they don't find me

You know the reefer is technically not 70g but include the sump volume right? I got a 350 and it’s 73g display. I haven’t stock mine yet but I will keep it to the minimum.

To continue Fishingandreefing’s line of thought, a quick google search shows that the reefer 250 is a 3’ long 54gal tank. I wouldn’t keep a single tang in that long term, let alone 4 or five.

Probably best to go the dwarf angel route. Maybe a goby/shrimp combo, if that interests you. I love the kamohara blenny for that size tank too.
