as i'm starting to get equipment together for my return to reefing, wanted to check for recommendations for fish.

Previously i kept nano tanks, and at most i had a clownfish and a sixline wrasse (i got lucky and he was a fine citizen when i had him).

I wanted to do it right this time, and I know technically, should put more peaceful fish first, so they establish then the more territorial ones?

Here's what i had in mind so far:
Fish:
pair clownfish
Baggai Cardinal (solo, unless they come in pair)
Royal Gramma
Filefish
Tomini Tang
Watchman Goby
Fairy Wrasse
Mandarin Goby (once tank more mature and has pods)

Invert:
Some kind of cleaner shrimp, likely coral banded?

any recommendations for order to add, removal, additions, changes?

the tank is 3feet by 2 feet, so i know tomini tang is probably pushing it a little bit, kole tang is also a possibility? but definitely not yellow tang, hippo tang, or the other ones that require much more swimming room.

thanks ahead of time!

While others may disagree, I think the tomini will be fine in a 75g. Another related question is what is the best order to add these fish. Good luck in your adventure!
