help me pick my livestock!

[Jaylene]

I'm trying to decide what fish I will put in my new WaterBox MarineX 110.4. I plan for it to be a mixed reef tank, so fish must be reef safe. I currently have two ideas of what fish I would like to have but I'm open to change, so any thoughts or suggestions would be very much appreciated.(Note: 1.Next to each fish I have written the maximum size that they can get 2. I'm trying to keep fish that are easy to moderate in care, and pretty peaceful.)

Idea 1:
X1 Lavender Tang (8”)
X1 Diamond Watchman Goby (6”)
*have to have goby, currently one in the tank that will be taken down
X1 Carpenter’s Flasher Wrasse (3”)
X1 Segmented Sailfin Blenny or Black Combtooth Blenny (4”)
X1 Dusky Jawfish or Blue Dot Jawfish (3.75”)
X1 Royal Gramma Basslet (3”)
X5 Red Stop Light Cardinal (2.5”)
X2 Clownfish (3”)
*some type of ocellaris TBD

Idea 2:
X1 Diamond Watchman Goby (6”)
X1 Carpenter’s Flasher Wrasse (3”)
X1 Segmented Sailfin Blenny or Black Combtooth Blenny (4”)
X1 Dusky Jawfish or Blue Dot Jawfish (3.75”)
X1 Royal Gramma Basslet (3”)
X2 Clownfish (3”)
*some type of ocellaris TBD
X3 Yellow Tangs (8”)

Both seem like good lists. I wouldn't do 3 yellow tangs though. Maybe 1 yellow and one lavender?

had to rehome our combtooth. got overly aggressive to it's tank mates. might have just been the exception.

I originally wanted two yellow tangs but after mountains of research and asking people who own more than one tang their opinions, they said either get 3 or 1. Two will constantly go at each other. Three will spread out the aggression. I do realize that 3 in a 110 gallon is pushing it, but I plan to aquascape leaving as much space for swimming and caves for shelter. I won't have corals like acros that get very large. Would you say three is still a no go?

Yellow tangs are going for 299 dollars right now . Just say in. Just got one. Hawaii is shut down.
