I am purchasing a Red Sea reefer 250 (no top) and was wondering how this looked as a stocking list
2 black ocellaris clownfish
1 Royal grama
1 fire fish
1 yellow tang or fox face lo
3 bangi cardnials
1 bi color blenny
Is that fully stocked or could I do more
Thanks!!!
 
I assume u will add cover since some pf the fish are jumpers
 
check brs website, they sell net cover that is low profile.

I would recommend against a yellow tang or foxface for this size tank.

With 3 bangaii's, 2 will pr up and kill the 3rd.

A clear 1/4" mesh cover from brs is a good idea.

Some other choices for that size include: yellow assessor, swales basslet, midas blenny, zebra dartfish, yellow head jawfish, grammistes blenny, watchman goby/shrimp combo.

Ok thanks for the suggestion
 
More! I personally would look to add at least 3 more fish. Nothing like Angels or Triggers, but 3 more smaller fish like flasher wrasse, yellow coris wrasse, some fairy wrasse would be fine.
