    I was also wondering if there are any corals that will work in this tank? I am looking for an easy, starter coral that needs minimal lighting.

    I would reconsider putting the lion and clown trigger in same tank. I am not sure but I seem to recall something about the trigger may bite at the lions spines.

    I just wanted to add that I am not "set in stone" with these fish. If you have any fish you are looking to part with, and they would get along in the tank I am looking to set up please let me kno! Thanks mthomp on the info concerning the clown trigger and lionfish, i am going to look into this matter further!

    oh my, I do not want to tell you what to do but that is not a very suitable size tank for the fish you are wanting. 1 or 2 of them yeah but i am not sure you understand how big these fish get. the angel and trigger get over 1.5 ft alone.  IMO you really want to stick with fish that wont get much bigger then 8 or 9 inchs.

    Mthomp I provided a list of fish that I was interested, I am not putting them all into the tank. Did you actually have any fish for sale?

    sorry mate I dont but your original post said in need of the following fish which led me to understand that was your fish list for this tank. either way all but the raccoon and yellow tang will end up being half the size of your tank.

    Brandon, I just removed a Maculosus Angel, Boomerang Trigger, and a Red Coris Wrasse from my display yesterday and have them in a 100g sump.  All the fish are three years old and raised by me.  Fed New Life Spectrum and very healthy.  The angel is 7" and full adult coloration...the trigger is 4" and the wrasse is 6-7" also adult coloration.  Sizes are from nose to tail.  All get along and are great fish, but I'm moving toward a reef safe tank.I would be looking for....$60-angel, $20-trigger, and $25 for wrasse.  Live in CR area.  319-432-3156Jeff

    Most "large" eels are gonna fare poorly in a 90. In fact you're going to have to hunt pretty hard to find ones that stay small enough to keep in a 90.

    Good luck!!!
