My cycle is done and im ready to stock my tank with probably four small fish. I was thinking about 2 percula clowns, 1 six-line wrasse, and maybe another peaceful fish like a royal gramma. Does anyone else know any other fish that can be put into this current setup? The tank is a 65 gallon w/ live sand btw. Thanks.

The percs would be nice, but instead of a sixline wrasse, or a royal gramma, maybe think about adding a coral beauty angelfish or a flame angelfish, but have your tank be 6 mon. old at least. I'd add a coral beauty instead of a flame, because they are much hardier. :)

My tank is about 5 weeks old now, 4 weeks with fish, I thought I might wait on the angels because I've heard that they need established tanks, like 6 months or older. So I wanted to start with 4 hardy fish. I would love to have a flame or coral beauty but I just don't want to take the uneccesary risk. So far I'm thinking definitely two perculas...I've heard a lot about the six-line wrasse although I'm not too familiar with it, I just need some suggestions for two other hardy peaceful fish. Thanks.

I had the exact same fish in a smaller tank, until my heater boiled them, all great fish another fish you could add at a latter date is a flame hawk, but no shrimp with him. Are you plaining to add all the fish at one time, what did you cycle your tank with if it was damsels get them out. I would start with the perc, then wait 3 weeks and add another just a thought. Good Luck
