Hey all. working out the specifics on a 120-150 Gallon tank ( haven't figured out which one) and I am trying to work together my fish list that I might want to.
What fish can I put in th tank that are reef safe that I won't have any problems with my corals.
Also, which are your favorites? If you have pics, post em, I would love to see. ***)

That is a tough question, but I would say my exquisite wrasse. He eats anything, swims through every nook and cranny in the reef and is constantly on the move, plus being peaceful and BEAUTIFUL!

tough question, I think i would have to say that the clown trigger is my favorite, they have great personalities but they are an aggresive fish. Another one that i like a lot is the flame angel beautiful color.

Can't pick just one!
Toss up between percula clowns, yellow watchman goby, lawnmower blenny, and
firefish. Each have unique swimming movement (UN-FISHLIKE) and personalities to boot!

Majestic Angelfish. Only about every 5 out of 100 will even think about nipping at a LPS coral...they're safe with everything else. Plus, they are G A W G E O U S!!!!

I've had angles, & people said they were hit or miss at bothering corals, well mine cost me $300.00 in coral. Tangs are good, I love my alage blenny.

Depends on the angel. All dwarfs are 50/50, but large angels...it depends on the species. I am an expert on Large Angelfish...so if you have any questions on a particular species..let me know. Just out of curiousity, which kind did you have?

Yep, yellow pygmy's and lemonpeels are the WORST ones about coral eating as far as the dwarfs go. I am rather surprised about the coral beauty though.

Dont say that! I just added a small Coral Beauty to my tank a few hours ago. He was from this site and is beautiful-active and color is great. But they are supposed to be about the safest of the angels in reef tanks-most say monitor, but the Coral beauty says safe-

Ive never had trouble with my Coral Beauty eating any of my corals, and from what ive heard most people dont have trouble with it, but theres always the ones that do, but i think there far and few between.
