I have a 75 reef tank with the following:
Green Chromis
Blue hippo tang
Yellow tang
Blueheaded wrasse
Yellow wrasse
2 clowns
Diamond goby
I am purchasing a 150 gallon tank for a family member and the tank has the following livestock:
Naso tang
Purple tang
Blue hippo tang
Kole tang
Sailfin tang
Foxface
Does anyone have an opinion on trading out some of the fish? Obviously I cannot keep them and will likely sell or trade some of the new ones or possibly some of the current stock list I have.
From this list what should I keep/trade/add/subtract?

let me rephrase...i am keeping the 75...the 150 is being shipped to Jamaica...so in the 75 what do you think the stock list should be?
why drop the goby? he's fantastic for keeping the sand clean.

I would keep the purple and the naso in the 150 but thats because they are my favorites, so I'm biased on that one

Yeah on it's dorsal fins. They are, IMO, the coolest fish ever!!! I've heard if you get pricked by one of it's spines it feels like a bee sting.
