    lol Theres many options how to stock tanks. Decide if you want FOWLR, Reef, or an Agressive Tank.

    Then Choose your Favorite fish that can go in the tank and make your list around that fish.

    Do what you want not others :) Or you wont be happy with it.

    Depends also on the size of the fish your looking to get. I would go with medium, not too large. This way you could add more fish if you wanted.

    Just check the temperment of the fish you want and make sure everyone will get along. Add the most aggressive fish last....stay away from fish that are too agressive also and you should be ok!

    Angles, Tangs, Clowns are a good combo if you have the room!

    I think a walrus and a polar bear would be cool in that tank.

    i personally would do agressive. large angels can go with lionfish since their large and couldnt be eaten. large angels also DESTROY corals most of the time.

    Yes, SPS are pretty safe from fish predators. angels and tangs are both fine.
