I think I just picked up my final fish
for my 240 (barring any future casulties) and I also like my final list. It only took me 2 years to assemble this tank with these fish.
I'm pretty happy with how the tank turned out as far as activity and color.
Does everyone think this will last long term, or will I run into problems as they grow?
240g
300lbs of LR with mutliple caves
Tankmates:
Snowflake Moray
Brazilain Goldentail (aka Banana) Moray
Blond Naso Tang - male
Yellow Tang
Flame Angel
Majestic Angel
Australian Harlequin Tusk
Red Sea Green Bird Wrasse - male
Banana Wrasse - male
Red Coris Wrasse
Maroon Clown - female
2 x 4 Stripe Damsels
Azure Damsel
Starkii Damsel
Yellow Belly Damsel
Any thoughts or comments welcomed.

Depending on your filtration, cleaning schedule sounds like a nice set up. Pictures would always help so I can "eyeball" your bio load ;)
Mostly cuz I want to see pics.

Filtration is a Amiracle 400 dual sided Wet/Dry with a Sequence Dart for a return.
Skimmer is an Aqua C EV-240 run by a Mag 12.
I traded the Magnificent Foxface shown for a male Banana Wrasse.
Picked up a large Red Sea Bird from here.
Video below was taken before the Green Bird and Banana Wrasse were added.

I imagine zero nitrates are going to be rather impossible to achieve, but, no I don't it's anything terribly unreasonable. Sounds like quite the exciting tank...,

Does sound like a cool tank -- just keep a check on your nitrates.. you'll have some but don't let them get too high and keep up on cleaning :D

Well my new Banana Wrasse has went MIA, so I assume I'm back top understocked for those that said I was over.

Couldn't have jumped (heavy glass tops), not in overflows, nothing in there that could eat it (6" fish), yet no body....simply MIA.
