Planning 150g Stock list.

[kayakatl]

So far the wants for the FO, or FOWLR 150 are:

Humu Humu Trigger
Clown Trigger (this is up for debate, but from what I have read they can do fine if introduced together and as babies)
Fox face
Spiny box puffer
Is there anything else that could survive with this crew? I know the triggers grow aggressive, but the others have defense. I want one more... something to add to that list. Suggestions?

Oh, and is it the spiny box puffer that nukes systems when it dies?

What about the flame angel babe! Can't we put him in there too

 

[kayakatl]

Babe... isnt the flame angel a peaceful fish? He would be lunch in 15 minutes with the triggers i think.

Harlequin Tusk would be nice!

How about a grouper or eel or you can do a larger angel

There were some adorable 2-3" foxfaces at the Alpharetta Warehouse Aquarium yesterday (both one-spot and Lo). I had no idea they came that small, every one I've seen was 5"+. They also had some nice triggers, wrasses, angels, and eels.

groupers and eels hide 99% of the time.

If you want active fish, go with a large angle like Emporer, queen, asfur, passer. Or a tang, or a large wrass(coris are very pretty)

good choices here

I love Triggers - didnt know the clown and huma would be compatible. In a tank that big should be fine though..

I think the puffers are only dangerous if consumed by another fish but i could be way wrong on that..

I would be worried about the foxface with all those aggressors...I have heard of tangs stressing out Fox's to death in some cases..they are easily frightened and stressed - at least mine were...go magnificent!!

With that being said, do you think a Foxface would get along with two small GSM's?

I would think so....mine was fine with my 2 GSM's as they didnt stray too far from their nem. It was the yellow tang and regal tang that constantly stressed him out - I had to sell him.....for that and he was a clam nipper and zoa muncher

 

[pufferchris]

I currently have a clown trigger ,yellow tang ,long fin grouper, and a Zebra moray eel in my 240 gallon dt and plan on adding a queen angel and a Emperor snapper or a yellow tail snapper if I can find one

I like a blue ring angel.
