new tank stocking?

[hotwire284]

i have this posted in the newbie forum but i figured id post it here to. i am starting to plan for a new tank and am new to the saltwater thing but have been in FW for a while. thanks for your help!
ok, so i have been lookin online both here and marine depot at some fish and have come up with some i think i would like to get. obviously this will not be all at once so, if one fish should be added before another please let me know!
list so far (this will prob. change by a fish or to but it is a start)
(2) clowns
(3) green chromis
(1) six-line wrassel
(1) lawnmower blennie (sp?)
(1) flame angle
(1) hippo tang or yellow tang or both? would they get along?
what size tank would i need for this? i think i wanna be around the 100gal mark for a tank. is this to many fish? will they all get along? thanks for all the help.

anybody?

that sounds like a good list of fish. Tangs can be put in the same tank as long as they have different body shapes and the tank is large for both of them. You can put a yellow with a hippo but not a yellow with a purple. The lawnmower and sixline are two of my personal favorites, both have very few negatives about them in my book.

thanks everyone. ok so that is a decent list of fish as far as compatability. am i at a max for a 100gal tank there or do i still have some space? or should i move up to a 125gal?

That sounds pretty close to max for a 100 gal, that is not including the extra tang. If you wanted the extra tang then I would get the 125, or bigger.

I agree with the above comments. If you want both the tangs, shoot for at least a 125 or bigger. You'll thank us in the long run, b/c we all know that once you get a big tank, you want an even bigger one!!
Good choice of fish though. I think they would all do great together in the right size tank!!!

good list.
you'll be happy with the sixline. they are the coolest.
flame angel I've read should be added after 6 months.
