-Gobie/Shrimp Pair

-Lemon Peel Angel
-Potters Angel
-Mandarin
-Chevron Tang
-Leopard Wrasse
-Pair of occy clowns either orange or mixed or snowflake - will be fine
-Yellow tang juvie - once you get a fish you will find it hard t sell it off
-Some form of wrasse - smaller wrasses will be fine... look up 6 line ;)
-Pair of cleaner shrimp - hells yes my next purchase!
-2-4 Bangai - probably 2 would be okay
-Hawaiian Flame Angel yes, but only one angel per tank
-Emerald Crab - Really really want one
-Gobie/Shrimp Pair - harlequain shrimp so good!
-Tiger Blenny - yes
-Lemon Peel Angel - as above yes but only one
-Potters Angel - yes
-Mandarin - with enough LR and after 6 or so months WITHOUT things like a wrasse yes Some wrasse will decimate pods
-Chevron Tang - again about tangs
-Leopard Wrasse - yes, but will more than lieu get to big ad be a bully.

Aim for something like :
*pair of clowns
* 1 angel
*cleaner Shrimp
*Tiger Blenny
*6 line wrasse or mandarin
* thought about acro gobies? 1 or 2 would be cool

but running the deltec wont i be able to overstock? or is that with corals?
i know obviously theres over stocking with equipment n you need sufficient room but seen some pretty crowded 2ft cubes n all fish seem really happy

Ok lol tonight was meant to be the night i complete pretty much all the hard work then plug things in when my order comes but Dave @Extreme Reef has a heap on and said next wednesday which in reality is still pretty quick but because i was so excited about it lol i think thats why im cut, as ads said...part and parcel...

speaking of parcels...i tend to get excited over little things haha and heres one of those things
IMG_7659.JPG

lol 6m USB for programming my radion haha dno why i bought it just feel the need to have the ability to sit at my desk and program it lol prob do this once n never use it again....odd because USB reliability is only up to 5m i think

and speaking of more parcels....these are the tracking numbers for my AoA order
585744133011
585735373013

and speaking of another parcel...
