Welp my new 90 has been up for a while and ive added some corals and more rock.
Everything was moved from an exsisting well established 50 gallon.
Initial stock from 50
2 false percs
royal gramma
coral beauty
I already added
Random corals
Yellow watchman and tiger pistol pair (one of, if not the coolest things ive ever had)
Remaining stock to be added/purchased

pair of bangai cardinals
some type of flasher wrasse (recomendations)
sixline wrasse
tomini tang
Maybe a LMB
I think im full at this point, am I?
What order should the new guys be added?

The 50 was up for about 9 months, the 90 has only been up about a month. It never even cycled. It was basicially a 3 day opperation switching tanks.
The only coral in the tank is some xenia, a very small amount of GSP, a finger leather, a trumpet coral, and a green trumpet coral.
I think im 99% positive thats the stock list I want, and they all should get along, the only question is what order should I add them.

Well I am no good with these things, but I would hold off on the LMB for a while as they do alot better with natural algae in the tank. Let that build up so the guy has some cleaning to do.
I think I would add the tang last but I could be wrong here. I would add the wrasses, then the cardinals, and then the tang. I would not add all these in one day though.
Did you have troubles with the coral beauty and your corals in the 50??

Ill see about picking up the flasher today.
After talking to a bunch of local reefers I think im going to pass entirely on the LMB unless I need its services, lol.
The coral beauty has never touched a thing, it picks off of the rocks, and eats just about any food but coral wise, he seems to leave it alone.
