Wit my past tank I suppose I got lucky. I never had an ich outbreak, brook or velvet on my percs, but consider that the exception. This tank will be larger with more fish load so I wil be qt'ing and employ ttm.

What are the basic medications recommended to have on hand? Plan is to have 5-7 dispar anthias, fowleri tang, a pair of snowflakes, a few wrasses, and a few blennies.

What are some meds you guys recommend having on hand for the above fishload?

I always listed melaphix, pemaphix and copper for freshwater. Medications expire tho. There is not a ton of stuff that copper, hyposalinity, or tank transfer won't fix. You can go around the corner to the store and buy stuff as needed.

7. API General Cure (Praziquantel + Metronidazole)
8. Seachem- Kanaplex
9. Seachem- Focus (Binder)
10. Kordon- Amquel Plus (Emergency Ammonia Reducer) I rarely use this. Water changes control my Ammonia levels.
