I have already purchased a hippo tang and a flame hawkfish but plan on buying 8-10 more in the next 3-4 months. Anyway, I have a 120 gallon tank(48/24/24) and would like to eventually add these guys.
1) Blue Spot Jawfish
2) Mandarian
3) Flasher Wrasse
4) Fridmani
5) Couple B&W and Snowflake Clowns
6) Maybe a chevron tang if I get rid of the hippo or a flame angel(Haven't heard the greatest about them in a reef tank but love their color)
I know the list may change as I see something I like but currently these are the guys I have had a eye on.
Anyone see any problem with this amount of fish in a 120 or the compatibility with one another or corals/zoos

The tank is a bit short for a Hippo in my opinion but a Chevron Tang would be an even worse choice.
The Wrasse and the Mandarin are incompatible. They won't squabble but the Wrasse will leave nothing for the Mandarin to eat. I wouldn't add both.
Jawfish are notorious carpet surfers, make sure they can't jump out of the tank.

Thanks for the reply. Makes my choices easier. My hippo is only about 1-1 1/2" right know. Plan on trading him in when he becomes larger. Kind of like kids. Get them small..feed them...love them...shelter them...then kick them the
out when the get to big.
