Thanks, guys.

Equipment
I currently have, or am planning, the following:

custom 20g glass sump based on SteveP's design
Mag 9.5 return pump
AquaC Urchin Pro skimmer
2 Maxi-Jet 1200's
4x110w VHO fixture (will probably order while the tank cycles)
Southdown sandbed (probably 3-4")

Fish
Fish I already have that will be transferred to the new tank:
Percula clown
Talbot's damsel
Springer's dottyback

Fish on the short list for the new tank:
Bicolor or midas blenny
Longnose hawk
Kole tang
Yellowtail damsel
Sixline wrasse or twinspot hogfish
Royal gramma (if it will co-exist with my dottyback)


Corals
This will be my first real foray into corals. I would like to keep some of the following:
Euphyllia
Plerogyra
Turbinaria
Tubastrea
Favites
Caulastrea
Heliofungia
Blastomussa
Galaxea
Zoanthids
Mushrooms


What do you think?

The Wrasse, Gramma and Dotty might be fun...but other than that, it sounds like the tank I am putting together

I even have the same waiting game with a Dotty and Gramma, wife liked them both...we'll see what happens, or one will have to be rescued and returned.
