In which order would you introduce these fish?


Fish list
Purple tang
Yellow tang
Blue tang
Unicorn tang (2)
Naso Blonde tang
Tomato clown
Green Wrasse
Niger trigger
Crosshatch butterfly
Threadfin butterfly
Copperband
Betta
Bicolor angel
Royal grammas (2)

Thanks
 
This is how I would do it.
Small fish and all butterflys first
All the tangs at once
then the trigger

But what do I know. I would probably add them that way or just all the fish at once. I have 8 tangs in my tank all went in the same day. What size is your tank do you have a good skimmer?

450 gallons, approx 600 total gallons and looking for an XP 5000external skimmer.
 
Premium aquatics has them in stock and ready to ship.My friend has that skimmer along with an ATS in his 1000g system 450display.I bought his custom orca 250.That skimmer kicks butt!!!!

This is exactly what I would do too. Maybe even the Copperband first on its own so you can get it used to eating in the new tank before more voracious feeders get added.

Good point. I'll add the copperband first. Any other thoughts?
