i cant really think of any fish that will mature that fast in a year.where as you can make money off of them. i have a imperor angel that has adult makeing.however when somethink like that happens its really rare. you may want to keep it in that case. i dont like to trade prize fish. only the easly replace fish like clowns and hawks ....stuff like that. a year is too soon i would think. however if you just want to get rid of them once they get to big for the tank that sounds good. i honestly think by then think you may want another tank or a bigger one.
this stuff is highly addictive.

you should probably get something other than the tang, yes, and general rule is 1 inch per 5 galons(at fishes maturity), but sometimes this can be pushed a bit, i would consider going wiht a couple of smaller fish, yes, what other fish were you thinking about?
and do you have lr,, are you thinking a reef, or is it gonna be fish only?

with a sergeon tang i would go with a smaller fish. he will get really large. they love to swim and req excellent water. (be sure to start a Q-Tank soon if you have not already)
depending on the size of the fish.i dont think a 55 long is even big enough for that type of fish. i would jump to a 110 or 25. about 6 feet or so. they really need room to swimm. needless to say i would go with a smaller line up. if money is a factor with a longer tank..........look in the news paper or a local trading paper. save about $400. i am sure you will find something. it ounds like you really want the bigger prettier fish, however you know the tank is to small.

might i also suggest to go with is not the norm. maybe a snowflake eel. very easy to take care of and when they move.aww its beautiful! and they are reef safe. a yellow or purple tang. a flame hawk. a really nice set of large clowns(your pick) a dwarf angel, like a coral beauty or a flame angel. you can add a heppetus tang with your yellow or purple tang. a powder blue tang is really pretty however your tank is small. if you get one get it really small. you can get a really small powder blue tang and a yellow and a another tang of different color and shape. you can even go with a pink tailed trigger. thay are pretty reef safe. if you are not going to reef yet get a nice niger trigger. i say start looking. name 5 fish that youlike the most and get them. if one is not compatible with ther other cross it off. start iwht number one. the powder blue tang. if number 4 is not compatible skipp it and go to number 5 fish on your list. make a list from 1 thru 10. once you have your list then start to buy.however research all fish first. i am having that problem with my 300g. i dont know if i want to go fish only or reef and fish. its like 52inches tall so light would be like $1000 i am sure if i do reef and i do it right. the hell with just polyps and mushrooms. if i do it i am going the whole 9 yards
