We have a new custom 250 gallon saltwater tank that has been cycling with some small starter fish for about 6 weeks. We are about to start choosing our new family of sea life! We have children and are looking to have some interesting, out-of-the-ordinary fish, including eels. I understand this means we will have an "agressive" tank. We do have professional help to get us started. What suggestions do you have for specific sea life that will be compatible?
 
Lionfish
Clown Trigger
Blue Devil Damsel (get like 8-12 and form a school)
Zebra Moray Eel
Regal Angel
Moorish Idol
Yellow Tang
Atlantic Blue Tang
Black Longnose Tang




Not sure how these fish go together cause I havn't researched these largers guys ... my tank is only 55 gallon. But they look nice and can go in a tank your size.
 
I would not suggest the Moorish Idol unless you are an expert at Sw tanks, they have a lower survival rate than mandarins or linka stars or anything else I can think of. The big problem is most people can't get them to eat!!
