    you would be on the high end of being overstocked. but IMO , they arent big poop producers , and with an oversized skimmer you should be good. and yes a nce variety. good luck with it , and look forward to pics.

    never had a coral beauty with a clam but angels have a reputation for nipping them and corals.

    Well I'll see how that goes with the CB, because that one will be transferred from my FOWLR.
