The tank is a 180, six feet long. Thanks, Jayme

I have a 180 that's about 6 months old, and I'm finalizing plans for the fish I want to have. Current inhabitants are a blackcap basslet, 5 green chromis, and a pacific blue tang. Ultimately, I'd like to add a mandarin goby, maybe a couple more chromis and maybe a naso. What order would you all...
