Hi
I am looking for some ideas on fish for my tank. Here is what I have now..
1 scopas tang
1 sailfin tang
1 maroon clow
3 yellow tail damsels
1 algea blemmy
snails and crabs
I also have a smaller tank with a yellow tang and purple tang, they will be going in the 155 at thee very end. I need some ideas for fish can anyone help??

How r your tangs getting along? How small is the tank? Just wondering because i had bad expierence mixing same type of tangs. Are you planning a reef, or fish only?

The tangs get along great, they are in a 40 gal and they been in there for 2 years.. I am doing a fish only tank. I just hope that when they all are in the big tank things go well

You are a lucky person to have those two in such a small tank. Anyways I don't think the scopas or sailfin would work because that is a few to many tangs of same type in one tank. Maybe a blue hippo or naso would work if you like tangs. Also if you aren't planning on a reef than a more peaceful type of trigger, like a bluejaw or pinktail, would be cool. I also like butterfly fish.

Thanks for the input, all I an do is try itand if they fight, I can always take them out. I am thinking of some Butterfly fish they are nice

Also i like chromis because they are an active schooling fish. For butterfly fish I like the copperband even though I haven't had any butterfly experience I think they look nice. Marine Fishes by Scott W. Michael is a good book when looking over different possibilities of fishes. Another fish type that i like is a small angel.
