Great pics everyone! I don't have any tangs.
I've read my 75g is too small for tangs. I wanted a kole tang but even that will outgrow a 75g, so I've heard.
I most definetly will add a few tangs when I build my 270g though...coming in 2008.

You're right Adult Tangs are way to big for a 75....but if you get a juvi you should be fine till u get a bigger tang....just my 2cents.

bullit. PPs are not good in reefs or most triggers but the Niger is one of the safest but still a gamble IMO. Everything else sounds good and are great choices, The Blue is a Regal/Hippo??
Chromis normally do better in odd numbered groups. I suggest getting 5 or more.
Healthy BTAs normally turn into 2 anyway because they often split but up to you if you want to buy 2.

I've tried convicts a couple of times in different tanks and did not have very good success. The convicts swam back and forth accross the tank, but I was never able to get them to eat. I am sssuming that they starved to death.
