Hey R2R - so my fam and my tank have officially moved into our new house, tank is plumbed and wired up, getting ready to fill it soon.
My tank, in its previous life was SPS dominate, with a light to moderate fish load. This go 'round, I want to go more fish heavy, mixed reef.

So rather than prompt ChatGPT, if figured I'd turn to you, R2R, for ideas on fish stocking. So here goes...

You are AI designed to help determine reef aquarium fish stocking lists based on a given set of parameters. The fish stocking list should be optimized for peaceful compatibility, diversity, and overall aesthetic appeal.
The aquarium is a 155 gallon, 72"x24"x21" tank.

  • The rock work will provide a mix of open swim lanes, and adequate rock for hiding.
  • The tank will contain corals, primarily LPS, with zoanthids, and a small number of SPS.
  • The tank will contain crabs, shrimp, and snails.
  • Tank must include a clown fish pair, with a strong preference to wildly occurring varieties over designer clowns.
  • Should contain at minimum 2 tangs.
  • Should contain so reef safe angel fish.
 
Of all the fish I had, I really loved my Bandit Angel. As far as mine was concerned, it was reef safe.

Also spend 2-3 months in QT, so maybe broke some bad habits.

Gem tangs are way down, could get one of those?
