Sounds like your just about there. Are the fish,especially the tangs, very territorial? If not ,add another. The fish will let you know when they feel crouded. STEVE

 

[clownfish]

I will set up a 55 gallon tank in September. I plan to have:
one percula clown
one coral beauty
one yellowtail damsel
one six line wrasse
one firefish
one yellow tang
I will, of course, add these fish gradually. I'm not sure if I will put the tang in there because of potential parasite plagues. The damsel will probably be put in first, then the clown, then the wrasse, firefish, and beauty.
