What are the dimensions?
Being a shark/ray fanatic I'd definetly have a pair of bamboos, a bluespotted ribbontail ray, and maybe some big tangs or a ribbon eel.
 
I already have most of those in my other tank,, I am thinking of going with some really nice tangs, an angel, I saw a Garibaldi the other day, does anybody know how these do in Aquariums, how their tempermant is???

If you like variety you can do alot of different gobies. Like fire fish and flame. And some tangs and angels. that is what i have setup but i have a smaller tank.

wow, 300 gallons to play with....
i would try to have a school of fish, maybe yellow tangs, chromis, or anthias.
also would have a harem of jawfish...
maybe one big show fish, cant think of one off of the top of my head though...
duece good luck with the new set up!

i personally will never have a tank with out some kind of eel...
other than that i would throw in a volitan, blue jaw trigger (male)and i would love to add a bamboo shark too but then i'd have to give up the trigger (hard decision)...can't think of any other right now. those are just my personal favorites but you obviously have room for more than that...

A tank full of schooling fish would be great, chromis and anthias along with a variety of clowns and others. Schools in that size of tank would really be fun to watch!:D

Nice to dream.
FOWLR tank
Annularius Angel (My Favorite!!)
Pair or Blond Naso Tangs M/F
Pair of Clarki Clowns (They will set up a territory.. very cool)
Powder Blue Tang
Flame Hawk
Clean up crew
Wish I had a bigger place...Wish I could find a decent annularius
 
I'd rather have the kids and my husband any day.....back to the tank, I have three yellow tangs that school nicely and all get along well...if I had 300 gallons I would have 5-7 yellow tangs.
