I have three comments/issues with that list.
1) The princess needs a lot of live rock and algae to graze on. This is a must.
2) Get the pinktail smaller than the volitan and you should be safe there.
3.) Maybe consider substituting a niger or blue throat for the humu humu because I would hate to see the humu humu rip the lion apart, regardless of the size of the two fish. Besides you already have the white coloration in the sfe, get something blue with the blue throat.

i agree with lion although i wouldn't put a lion with any trigger just as a precaution, or with a queen angel or a large angel of any other kind. they all have a big potential to pick on the volitan. also the panther make sure you get him small because if you don't and the other fish don't grow as fast as he does. expensive lunches i'd say. other than that i say you got a good list.

Well, I have everything but the grouper and the angel right now and ive had the huma over 8 months. I figured my trigger would have gone crazy by now. And besides I bought triggers that were proven not to nip at lions. Besides all my free time goes into minitering my aquariums and I have a seperate setup in case of any incodent.
