So since I'm maxed on my current 90 tank, obviously the next course of action is to plan the upgrade! (someday). I'm hoping within the next 3 years, there will be a move sometime in there too; so would pursue it after that of course.
The current dream tank is a 280 or 300 gal peninsula, with a basement tank room, large sump, and the connected 50 gal water barrels for more volume and easier water changes.
Any who, the main thing was the stocking list. This is kind of what I've been seeing and liking lately, just curious on the comparability. Current tank members are included, but if they pass away that type may not get added again.
(1) Naso Tang
(1) Hippo
(1) White Cheek
(1) Atlantic Blue
(1) Two Spot Bristletooth (is a current tank member, assuming she's still around by then. Wouldn't get another one though)
(1) Bonsai Coral Beauty (current member, would probably get just a standard size one; with a larger tank)
(3) Lyretail Anthias (current member)
(3) Anthias - not sure which ones yet
(5) Chromis
(3) Pyramid Butterflies
(2) occ clowns (current member)
(1) royal gramma (current)
(1) Goby (a maybe, depends on my aquascape)
(1) Dragonette
(1) Blenny (some type)
(1) Yellowtail Damsel (current)
(1) talbots or tracey's damsel
(1) springer's dottyback (current, probably wouldn't get again)
Also honorable mention a pair or trio of Spotbreast Angelfish (or single female?). Would love them but not sure if or where they would fit in.
Guessing the main hiccup would be the tangs, which I would probably add in two groups.....after everything else. The naso and hippo as first group, then the white cheek and atlantic blue. The Bristletooth I currently have would have to be removed and put in fish jail for awhile; it's already known she's a jerk.
