my 125 has been up and cycled for about 5 weeks, currently i have 2 cleaner shrimps , clarkii and maroon clown in it, i know not to mix the clowns but these two have been together for about 3 weeks and are doing fine. i wanted to list some of the others i was wanting to get over time.
porcupine puffer
naso tang
regal tangs 2
spotted sweet lips
2 more clarkii clowns
green mandarin goby
tell what you think or maybe suggest some other that might get along. i'm looking to achieve a peaceful tank, fowlr.
right now i have 2 emperor 400 filters 2 powerheads and a seaclone 150skimmer, 100lbs for lr and about 60 naussarius snails.

i would stay away from the naso and the sweet lips. the nasos will get over 18 in and the sweet lips over 24 in.
down the road the clowns could be a problem. maroons are one of the largest clowns and most aggresive as well. i would either just have one pair of maroons or clarkii, whichever you prefer.
the puffer might eat your inverts, especially your shrimp.
i would get one hippo, and maybe another tang or a foxface.
manadrins are difficult to take care of because of their dietary needs.
have you thought about dwarf angels, a hardy butterfly, or some of the wrasses?
