60 Gallon Tank Build ?'s

[blupez]

so I'll be starting a 60 gallon tank build for my tattoo shop. I'm wanting to stock it with fish fitting to the environment but not sure what's going to work. So far here's what I'm thinking.

Leaf Fish
Rogue Scorpionfish
Dwarf Lionfish
Mimic Saddle Puffer

I'd like to add something to help keep the tank clean since I won't be able to keep a CUC. What would work? Will a diamond watchman goby be ok?

Any comments/recommendations on the type of fish to stock?

I would like to keep some coral in the tank. At least some mushrooms, zoas and pretty much anything easy to care for.

Harlequin tusk. Awesome looking fish. Once i get a fowler going thats the second fish I'm tossing in it.

Hey dude, check the fowlr tank in cowboys Harley Davidson. Your shop would be inline with a bike shop, I imagine.

Off topic, but I've got to ask. I've been wanting to get some original ink on my back over the shoulder and around the side under my arm. Are you one of the artists? Or just the owner?

Sounds awesome. I've been wanting to get a tattoo and I love seeing new tanks, I can kill two birds with one stone if I go to your shop ;)

I'll post pics when it's up. I'm definitely going to check out the tank at Cowboy HD to see what they have.

any thoughts on a CUC?

Will the diamond watchman be ok in there with the scorpionfish?

[hobogato]

i think it would get eaten.

[blupez]

yeah I've been looking at the compatibility chart on live aquaria and it doesn't seem like it's going to work.

here's the short list so far:
Scorpionfish (either a leaf or a rogue)
Dwarf Lionfish
Mimic Saddle Puffer
Foxface


Some others I've considered:
Half black Mimic Tang
Longnose Hawkfish
Golden stripe soapfish
Two barred rabbitfish

one of my concerns is that the soapfish would eventually outgrow the tank. the hawkfish could get eaten also.

a wrasse maybe?

i'm guessing my CUC will end up being somewhere along the lines of the Crew@Elegant.
