An excellent example of what NOT to do and how NOT to stock a 90 gallon tank...
Thanks for sharing and good luck. Your livestock is gonna need it!

As cool as it sounds you're probably going to lose at least half the tank...a month old tank is not going to be able to handle that kind of a bioload spike, much less Are the corals going to be able to thrive. If you still can, I would return the less hardy fish to the LFS and try to salvage what you can before the tank crashes, and it will...

i would definetly get those corals and all fish but the damsels back czu those are the only ones that would probarly survive imho that big angel and bannerfish are unsuitable for anything less then 125 gal tanks and even though the other fish may survive there will be lots of agression as your live rock from what i see shows little to no hideing spots the more live rock with caves and ledges the more hideing spots there are and the more territorys can get established.

All of the livestock were from my old tank which is exceed 1 year old. They all were doing very well. I like to do research by myself of what CAN DO and what CANNOT DO in a marine aquarium System. Don't simply follow what people say and learning from book or people who think they are expert of keeping a marine system.

All of my livestock is not newly harvest from sea. It is establish and stable livestock from my old tank. Perfectly normal and what other people cannot do.

There's a huge difference between a fish tank and a marine system. The "experts" here and in books are called that because of their experience in both successes and failures.

I am by no means an expert but based on what I see in my very humble opinion, I would be surprised if nothing died in the next 30 days. It looks like a big party and we all know parties don't last.

Too many fish, too little rock. Some of those fish are too big for the tank.

I was going to do some bashing but i wont. i will give you an honest opinion. regardless of the fact that the live rock came from an existing system there is far from enough. the key to keeping an overstocked tank healthy is to meet its requirements in rock and sand to handle the waste that each of your pets excretes. some of your fish are big poopers. i have to agree with the thoughts here that you will most likely suffer some losses since, at some point, pretty much "overnight" is going to become very toxic because of the lack of a proper amount of denitrifying bacteria. even if the sand you are using is live sand. there is not a deep enough bed. i really think this needs to be remedied quickly. the same for your rock load. the problem now is when you add more rock it will contribute to the toxicity levels. especially because all those fish went in at pretty much the same time. an existing thriving, properly waited out the cycle tank couldnt handle that many fish at once. do you have a fuge? a large one with tons of chaeto or macro? if not, you overlooked a very important part of keeping that many fish healthy.
on another note, good luck with the mix of clowns...lol..ive been there, done that... just wait till the maroon decides he's king at the same time the tomato does...dont get me wrong, im not bashing you but i really hope you give an honest update in month. we are here to pick you up when that mushroom cloud comes rising outta your tank.

I have been doing this a long time King and your tank scares the shite out of me.
If your new to reefland and reef keeping, dont try this at home.

NO WORRY AT ALL! It is fine for me to show you all what happened in my tank on 27/3/2011.

My Filtration system is enough to handle all of the bioload from my livestock.I Have Trickle ( Wet Dry Filter System) , NP Biopellets Reactor, Refugium sump, Protein Skimmer, Pro Filler F1 Bacteria and daily 5%water changes. I'm not using tap water, it is 350 Litre of pure water from MY Reverse Osmosis system.

3 of My solitary clown survive and live happily for 1 year before? Is it an issue here? Why people cannot do this? Because they always DUN WANNA TRY THIS AT HOME! LOL!

[KingAmir]

Harumph!

Maybe you have a different experience with me! LOL!

Sounds great for a fish only with LR system.

+5 lol!

WOW!!!!! you got some guts to set up a tank like that!!! like it!!! I dont see that much problem in your tank when it comes to crashing and everything taking a hit. Since your live rock were cured the moment the tank was set up.. thats good.. the main reason most tank crash after few month or the level get out of wake is bcz the rocks arent cure yet (lot of nasty stuff still inside rock).. The amount of fishes you got there is crossing the line IMO but oh well.. as long you are doing water changes and your skimmer is working like a champ.. u should be fine.. Try not to over feed em. The only thing got me worry are the anemones and your wavemaker. Too many stories about em walking in the middle of the night randomly and getting stuck in the powerhead/wavemaker.. Not a pretty picture when one em end up as a toxic soup. Try to cover the wavemaker w something. In the other hand.. Amazing you got those clown together!!! woowww!!! Are you planning to add corals? btw is that a flower pot u got there? well good luck and keep on reefing!

About my anemone, they all were doing very well. Maybe i just have luck got anemone that dun wanna move around the tank! I'm giving all of my fish F1 Marine food contain spirulina and garlic. Brine shrimp everyday for my sebae anemone.. they looks great and very healthy.

I'm not planning to keep more coral because i just wanna have an active and hardy fish tank system in my tank through good filtration and giving a good diet for them.
Anyway, i really appreciate you opinion. May god bless you.
