fish advice

[hookedonreefs]

I would like to start planning my fish for my tank. I wanted to post my thougts and see what feedback I get. I will post them in introduction order....
3 green chromis
mandarin dragon **
either coral beatuy or flame angel
2 perc clowns
blue hippo tang
finally a volitan lionfish...LOL j/k
** I won't add the mandarin until the fuge is creating enough food for it. But I'll definately put him in before the hippo
-Please keep in mind that I would like to have corals and inverts. I've done some mediocre research into these choices and don't think any should be too horrible for a first-time tank.(The only exception is the mandarin which I'm really intent on creating a suitable habitat for) Any input would be great.

You would be gambling with the angels. either one can pick at corals but the coral beauty tends to do it less. Some dont ever do it and some always do it. These guys are hit or miss. They also along with the mandarin need a mature tank of at least 6months old. I put a flame in mine after it got done cycling and it perished. Do a lot more reading on these fish and you will probably get told not to keep the hippo in a 75g because they like a lot of swimming room but I think a 75 sould be the minimum.
