Additional Fish For A 250/300 Ltr Tank

[stefday]

I currently have a 130ltr tank and I am looking at upgrading it for a larger tank. I like the look of the Red Sea 250 lte tank but have been advised by this website ( thank you) that I could get a custom tank made with a sump for the same sort of price.

I currently have 2 humbugs, a yellow head goby, a cleaner wrasse and a jewel algae blennie.

I was wondering if I would be able to have tangs, angels or butterfly fish in the new tank and if so which ones and how many? I would transfer the other fish to the new tank.

Thanks for any advice.

you would be pushing it, even with the smallest tangs. They will outgrow a 250L

Although if you went custom and got a 4x2x2 then you could keep a tang.

Angels - dwarf ones would be ok in 250l

butterflys tend not to be reef safe and hard to feed.


Also the humbug damsels may get agtressive towards new additions
