So after Megan and I have put our heads together on trying to get a very colorful fish tank...its looking like its going to be a "Tang Tank"...

The non tangs that we decided on are:

2 yellow watchman goby
1 Magnificent rabbitfish
The two clowns we have in the biocube
An ORA dragonet when the time comes...

Tangs:

Powder Blue and Powder Brown
Blonde Naso
Red Sea Sailfin and Reg Sailfin
Yellow that we already have
And my prize at the end of the tunnel......Achilles


So what does everyone think? Is this going to be too much for the 220g? Can anyone think of any extras that I should have? I'm obviously going to have a ton of snail and crabs too...should I throw in a cleaner wrasse even though I am planning on having an open top?

Let me know what you think! This is what we're thinking now, not too sure if we should have all those tangs or not...but they are our favorite species of fish...

Thanks!
 
I would not keep the same species of tangs together. Like powder blue and brown. Pick one ,you can keep multiple tangs,but try different species.Also IMO there is just too many tangs on your list for the 220. Why not keep like only 3 and maybe check out some swallowtail angels. They are active swimmers,colorful,always in the open and most are not aggressive and reef safe.

Could you give me an example of a swallowtail? I was under the impression that angels usually were not reef safe. I would love to have one but didn't know.

I have to have an Achilles...love the sailfin...powder blue and blonde naso...what other fish would go well with those?

google: lamarck angel, watanabei angel, bellus angel. All are reef safe, don't nip corals or clams,
