I need some info on stocking my 155g reef tank.....I was thinking about 1 Yellow Tang, 1 Blue Hippo Tang, 1 Sailfin Tang, 1 Green Mandarin Goby, 2 True percula Clowns, 2 Banggai Cards, 1 Flame Angel, 2 FireFish Gobys, and 2 cleaner shrimp, I think this is overstocked but you tell me!!!!!!::bump:

For a tank that size I dont think that is overdoing it. If you are going to do the tangs get them small and introduce them from least aggressive to most aggressive.

You have a good size tank there... go slow... but what you suggested seems reasonable to me, I saw a sailfin yesterday at my lsf, the size of a quarter, but I have been told they do get pretty big.

The sailfin could be a questionable addition thats for sure, but based upon the success I have seen in tanks that are smaller than that coupled with the suggested tank size on many of the online retailers I would go ahead and try it and see what happens. Have good flow, plenty of hiding spots, get it small, and keep it on a very good diet and it along with the rest of the fish in the tank will benefit for sure.
