3 or more tangs are fine in one tank--obviously if you have the room. Two tangs will fight, so 1 or 3 or more is the ruling.

im with jimi, that tank is already full, and might be overstocked (not sure of how big a scopus tang gets). but dont add anymore fish, just corals, inverts, and lr. how many pounds of lr do you have? do you have ls? what kind of lighting do you have? start off with some easy corals, then work your way up. i would suggest some shrimps and crabs. bo

A Scopas tang looks just like yellow tang except that it's a shade of brown :) It will get as big as a yellow. Two tangs in your 75 is more than enough. If you are going to be adding corals - you will have less room for the fish. I would say you are pretty much maxed out. If you need to have one more fish keep with one that will stay small - a Blenny or a Gobie.
