    Picked up a 1 1/2" hippo tang, a small 6-line wrasse to replace the suicide jumper, and 2 blue eye squampinis (spelling?) anthias today. Everybody ate and was very active as soon as they got in my tank.

    Maybe a huge baby blue staghorn as well.

    75g is finally completely stocked with fish.

    1- 3" yellow tang
    1- 1 1/2" hippo tang
    2- 3" percs
    1- 1" 6-line wrasse
    2- 3"-4" blue eye squampinis anthias
    1- 4" purple firefish
    1- 1" constantly MIA green clown goby
    3- 2" green chromis

    Pics to come soon.

    Wow that is a lot of fish and they all will grow some to a lot. I hope you have an extremely agressive skimmer and water change routine or your coral may suffer.

    Thank you

    The yellow tang has not grown in over a year, so i have to say that after a number of tank changes I have dwarfed it. It is very healthy though. The hippo, is so small and was on sale so I purchased it. IDK if it will survive or not. If it lasts a while I will purchase a 180g.

    I run a SWC xtreme 160 cone. H2O changes once a month. About 130lbs of LR and LRR. Fish are fed nightly. Knowing my fish and how my tank reacts to new additions, I feel nutrient levels will be adequately dealt with by my filtration.
