Compatibility Question

[montecarloz38]

Hello every one, I am new to the forum but not new to the salt water.
I have a compatibility question, as of right now I have a 75g tank with the following fish in there: Blue Tang, true clown, 3 four stripe demsels, yellow demsel, and a dog face puffer. I did have a foxface in there too but he died of ich (all cured now, what a pain in the ... that was.
Well I would like to add 2 more fish to my collection to compleet my tank.
One of the fish I would like to add is Imperator Angelfish. The other one is Piccaso Trigger or Clown Trigger. With the fish stated above, can both of those fish be added to my existing tank?
Thank you for your help.
PS: I have to corral, just live rock and live sand.
Also doing some research, I read that triggers have to be fed 3 times a day, is that true?

The triggers will pick on the clown.

Yeah the triggers would pick on the clown. The emporer angle would out grow your 75.

Thank you for the info.
Well according to *****'s website **** Please do not post links to competitor's sites the angel only reaches 12" or is that not the case?
What about the trigger thogh, how badly will it haras the clown? So you guys would not recomend ether fish for my tank?

unless you have a 40 gallon sump on there your about to the limit of livestock.
75 gallon is way to small for any tang.it will eventually get stressed out and get either ich or line disease.
i would get rid of the damsels then you could add another fish.

Too small because of the bio load or the actual physical size?
I have Fluval 405 and Aquaclear 110 running on the tank, plus a protein skimmer. Nu sump though.

 

[deejeff442]

both to small.
lg. angel needs at least 150 gallons.
trigger dont need as much swimming room but they will polute the tank fast.
so they need alot of water volume to delute it.
if you could fit a 40 gallon sump under the tank and fill it with lr you might be able to get the trigger.
unless you want to do 50% water changes weekly
natural filters like ls and lr will always outperform mechanical filtration

 

[montecarloz38]

Thank you for reply. Ok so the angel is out of the question, but trigger I am still debating. I know LR outperforms any filter.
But with me having about 90lb of LR and about 80lb of LS, and 2 filters; wouldn't that be enough ?>
With out doing the 50% water changes of course lol.

 

[montecarloz38]

Ok scratch all of that. How about a Regal Angelfish with Dog Face puffer, Blue tang, 4 damnsels and 1 clown ?

I suggest, get rid of ALL of the damsels, let your tank settle, then re-look at the wish list.......
