How does this sound, 240/8ft tank. 5 Yellow tangs, 3 purple,1 Naso. 1 coral beauty, 1 bicolor,1 Lion,1 Lunar Wrasse. Macro veggie food growing, 100 lbs live rock, 100lbs base.
Very large banded shrimp, 3 large craps, blue star fish, 100 assorted snails and hermits. Not sure on the Lunar and banded shrimp? Light leather coral and mushrooms.

Sounds incredible! Watch the lion and the wrasse though -they won't hurt your corals but may snack on your crustaceans.

yeah I am concerned, i really like my Lion and Lunar however that lunar is a scamp. I am real interested in just how big he will get, plus his colors are the best and i love activity in the tank. But the limitations are getting old. The banded shrimp will be at greatest risk. I was hoping the 8foot tank may help. The Lunar will stick his nose out of the water and spit at you like a dolphin. pretty cool.
