so i have my 75 gallon up and im looking to finally put some things in it.
i plan on moving my 2 engineer gobies and my occelaris clown into it and i intend to get a pincushion urchin.
other than those i dont have much of an idea of anything able to be with them peacefully.
any ideas would be great!

Hi,
There is no rush to stock your tank, so take your time and get what you really want. If you go nuts and stock it fully just to fill it, you won't have any room for the really cool one you find later.
Urchins need a ton of algae to eat, so they don't do well in new tanks.

oh i know. this thread was pretty much for suggestions to what goes well with the 3 i have and an urchin.
i plan on getting it later on as the tank has been up for about a month now and it needs some more time.
but thanks for getting back to me!

Hello,
This obviously won't be right away but... a Tomini Tang would be good for a 75 gallon. mabey some species of reef chromis
And some sort of butterfly I might get a Pyrmid .B but I don't know what you wan't...
Pyrmid . B:

Tomini Tang:

i was thinking of getting a whitetail bristletooth tang since the colors stand out. thanks for the suggestions.
i do like that butterfly. might be a good choice.
would a picasso trigger go along with the 3 fish i have now? forget the urchin...
i love the colors and triggers in general, but im unsure how it would treat the clown.
the gobies will most likely be okay, since they burrow around. anyone have any thoughts on it?

The trigger would be the last thing added to my tank. Also it will destroy your CUC.
But one othe these niger trigger would be okay to add at the end of your stock list that is...

Temporarly though they need larger homes
Here's a vid:

thanks for the vid. the niger triggers are actually my favorite kind of trigger.
but i know they will outgrow my tank and i wouldnt really have anywhere to put it after that.
another thing about them is i heard they are more aggressive than the picasso. is that true?
i know it depends on the personality of the fish and everything, but it helps to know...
