Soon getting my 90 gal. reef, and picked out the fish that are compatable and that I like. I am not sure what order to put the fish in though. Please help!
Flameback Angel
2 - Percula Clowns
Royal Gamma Basslet
6 Line Wrasse
Mimic Tang - Eibli (no tang police...Will be purchasing this fish when small, since I work at a pet store I can bring it back when it starts to outgrow my tank.)
Thanks for all your help!:D

Your Flameback Angel, Clown and Basslet fish are usually terrirtorial. Im not sure about the Wrasse or Tang, but most Wrasses are also territorial. You have a large area with 90 gallons, but they say its wise to introduce territorial fish at the same time, so they can pick their terriroties and hopefully minimize any confrontations. Because most of your fish, if not all are territorial, I would consider putting the ones you want most in first, so at least your favorite fish might come out on top in the event they begin to fight with fish that you added second or third. IMHO

clowns, then the gramma. Add the sixline and angel simultaneously, as either will likely go after the other if pre-established. Tang last. Make sure the tank is well established before adding the angel. (4-5 months minimum.)

ya. we have a dot - dash goby at my work, and im thinking I might want it! When should I add that in? Maybe replacing the tang with him instead.
