Yea i have a 55 gal tank and i have just began my first cycle ever nd i was wondering about certain fish 2 buy.
The Blue Hippo Tang ?
Percula Clown ?
Royal Gramma ?
Foxface ?
Flame Angel ?
all comments, and conserns will be appreciated
 
no go for almost any tang. they get to big from my understanding. i have heard that the foxface is an amazing fish. it is said to be the perfect fish by some. angels are good fish but are said to be not recommended for brginners. if you went with everything except the tang, you might be ok, but i dont know much about foxfaces.

If you go check out the fish you listed at the "Fish" link to your upper left, you can read more about what their minimum tank size is, what they should take as food and so on...
Generally, for Tangs, a six foot (long) tank (usually 75+ gallons) is required, as they are VERY active and are constantly swimming back and forth in the aquarium.
The clownfish and royal gramma sound like great additions, though
 
whatever you do, make sure you keep us updated with pics and comments.
i love to see a tank as it grows and matures
