    check my FO community plans

    I'm upgrading the FOWLR tank from a 60g to a 125g or bigger (maybe a 250 if I can find the $ and room).
    Here's what I have in the 60g -
    1 - dog face puffer (Arothron nigropunctatus)
    1 - harlequin tusk (Choerodon fasciatus)
    2 - damsels
    1 - strawberry dottyback (Pseudochromis porphyreus)
    Right now the pair of are in the reef tank with a hippo tang that is going in there as well (the hippo is 3" & remeber I will be upgrading)

    I want a large angel as the last fish. Not sure what kind maybe a queen angel
    Any suggestions or will this be okay?

    You may have some trouble maintaining water quality acceptable for an Angel with the feeding/eating habits of the puffer . You would need lots of rock , for filtration as well as caves and crevices and an efficient skimmer.
    In this hobby patience is not a virtue,,,,,its mandatory.

    Live Rock addition is also planned with the upgrade. The 60g is going to be my new sump.
    As for skimming I think my beckett driven by a Mak4 should handle that quite nicely!

    Thanks, for the input.
    I just noticed this omission in my first post here is the way it should have read -

    Right now the pair of maroon clowns are in the Qtank. Also a hippo tang in the reef tank is going in the FO as well (the hippo is 3" & remeber I will be upgrading)

    Note, I changed the wording for clarity & added the missing part about the maroon clown pair.
