    A few have already said it, and I don't want to be a party pooper as everything is looking good, but that Coris will be trouble in the future. While it doesn't seem as though you'll be keeping inverts (which would be Coris food), once he is no longer a juvenile and has some strength with his size, he'll be a terror turning anything and everything he can in your tank looking for food. They're quite the scavenger.

    I am quite aware... and thank you!
    all rock is either glued or very large and my frags/colonies are well secured for this very reason.
    A collection of shrimp will be kept in the fuge for the sole purpose of reproduction. They will regularly produce planktonic larvae to give my corals/pods a healthy live food source. I have had success with this in the past

    I have him both because they are IMO the most gorgeous wrasse and because they are great at cleaning up any "bugs" that may make it through quarantine.
    I am also planning on adding a wrasse from genus Halichoeres... most likely a Vrolik's Wrasse

    Ah, glad to hear all this then. Sounds as though you're well prepared. The Vrolik's should give you no trouble at all.
