I'm transitioning from a 110g 60x18x24 into two tanks as we have to redo the floor under the tank. I'm eventually going to put everyone back into a new 60x36x27 tank. But in the mean time I have a 40 breeder (36x12x24) and a 57 gallon deep blue rimless (similar dimensions but a little taller). I am going to have to frag all my sps and move my lps, so it will be tight, but hoping for some suggestions on how to keep the fish happy. Particularly the wrasses and yellow tang.

My stock is:

Yellow tang
Pair of ocellaris
Leopard wrasse
Melanurus wrasse
C. Jordani
C. Solarensis
C. Lineatus
C. Exquisitus

I plan on having sand in a big section for the sand sleepers and some rock, but I need a lot of space for the corals, and I only have one good light, so was hoping to squeeze most of the corals in the 40 breeder with the yellow tang and clown fish, and maybe the solorensis as it's extremely shy. Tanks will be plumbed together.

Thanks!
 
Thanks, already have the netting, and I'll pick up the window screen kit at home depot. I'll probably put all the wrasses in the 57 breeder with the lps and some rock, and the sps, yellow tang and clowns in the other tank.
