Can you review my stocking list?

[One Reefing Boi]

I have a 50gal Waterbox AIO (so about 41gal display) and wanted some recommendations on my stocking list

• Clown Pair
• YWG/Pistol Pair
• Purple Firefish
• Diamond Goby
• Mandarin
• Pink Streaked Wrasse or a Long Nose Hawk
  
  
  
• Skunk Cleaner Shrimp
• Fire Red Shrimp
• Long Spine Urchin
• Various CuC (blue legged hermits and snails)

The tank is a mixed reef with mostly LPS (torches everywhere lol)

Open to any suggestions and thoughts!

that looks fine to me, add the draggonete when you get established pods. I do have one trained on frozen mysid, YMMV

ok thank you! yeah the Mandarin will be the final addition and I will be getting a biota one that is already eating pellets or frozen.

Is this your first urchins? Urchins can drive you crazy, esp with zoa’s or insecurely glued corals. NTM they bite! Oh and that 50g is temporary housing for that long spine... I give it 2yrs
oftentimes I’ve imagined mine dried out as a paper weight

Looks great! but on the Mandarin if you are getting one early get a captive breed one I got mine from biota and he was eating frozen the day I got him barely touches the pods its based on the exact fish though.

if this is a new tank skip the diamond goby or skip it all together they are hit and miss on surviving in tanks due to starvation

hahah ok -- good to know! I always thought they looked really cool, but might forgo one for the time being then!

the mandarin will be towards the end, and it will be a biota one!

yeah I read this too -- I just love the way he looks chomping on the sand all day lol

but he will be a later addition to the tank for sure.
