I think that depends about the hippo. It will in fact out grow a 75gal in about a year. If you are planning on an upgrade within that time frame then it would be ok. My first tank was a 75 I had an achellis tang, Hippo tang , foxface,2clowns mandrine,sandsifting gobie ,scooter blenny. but they all are in a 150 now
As mentoned they grow fast. I have one in my tank but its still very little only about 2 inhes in length. But im in the process of builing a new 125 that he will be going in to, I hope he likes it. :jumping:

they dont grow slow either if given a constant supply of algae sheets to graze on as well as multi feedings per day. Mine has definately grown in a few months period.
