Hi all so I have a rough draft of the future stock list. Rough draft as in this is not set it stone and probably contains lots of no no's that I'm hoping you could help identify so I can weed them out. Also keep in mind this stock list contains WAY too many fish, I am still in the process of narrowing it down and picking out favorites. I have at least another month before I'm going to get my first fish. Btw, I am using liveaquaria.com as my only source right now.

I have devised a system to determine how much I want the fish from least to greatest order:

* = Its OK (not great but just ok)
** = its great!
*** = REALLY want it (willing to sacrifice)
**** = Priority 1 (must have)

Stocklist:
***Yellowtail Damselfish
**Royal Gramma Basslet
OR
*Gold Assessor Basslet
***Kaudern's Cardinal
***Ocellaris Clownfish
**Purple Firefish
OR
**Firefish
***Blue Dot Jawfish
***Six Line Wrasse
***Red Tail Flasher Wrasse
*Tail Spot Blenny
***White Banded Possum Wrasse
***Clown Goby, Citrinis
****Green Mandarin Goby
OR
****Red Mandarin Goby
OR
***Spotted Mandarin Goby
 
I'm going to get more live rock tomorrow and I'm also going to try and seed the tank with copepods. Because supposedly that's what your supposed to feed the mandarin gobies.

I suggest that you get some chaeto and that way the copepods can live in there.

I don't have a refugium. Where would I put the cheato? Their is a shielded off area in the back of the tank, about 5 gallons volume. It has bio balls, a skimmer, heater, etc. Their might be a litttle area I know about 3" X 8" of that i could stuff some seaweed in, is it ok if the area has no flow, no light, and is stagnant?
