High end slow build

[TNreeferBX]

Hello all,

I’m starting to put together what i definitely consider to be my dream tank. I’m hoping for some ideas for livestock for fish, corals, and inverts.

currently i’m growing out fish and corals that will go into the main tank. being that the cost of many or all of these specimens will be high this process will take a long time.

what i have so far:
black tang
white tail bristletooth tang
a few acans
some montipora
a big australian elegance
and some euphyllia colonies

current:
long black spine urchin
flame scallop
true peppermint shrimp
2 emerald crabs
1 red crab
some nassarius
some turbos
red leg hermits

update on coral:

probably going to focus on the following families-
gonis
monties
acro
milli
a few nice euphylia
and i absolutely love my elegance


if anyone knows any good people on here that can give good advice or can be a good source that would be much appreciated.


currently my euphylias, montied, acans, elegance, and avelapora are all doing fantastic

It starts with planning . Nice wish list and I forgot about black tangs
What do blacks sell for these days and who even sells them. Don't see them at any area LFS by me

around me they go anywhere from 8-1300, i got a good deal on mine though. got him super small (around 2”) and he’s going to be the only larger fish in the tank. super excited to surround him with some coral that lives up to his beauty
