I have right now a 55 gallon that I keep 55lbs of live rock and have a purple tang and a yellow tang, a kole tang, and a foxface plus a mated (big) percula clown fish. now I do have some snails, crabs, starfish also. But Iam getting in a week a 100 gal tank can I switch to a agrresive and I understand I will lose my snails and crabs. but about that starfish and what fish might I need to lose

Because i here tangs get ich very badly and my eel (when he smells food) will chase all my fish. so thats what iam guessing

Cartman101, first u say they "will" and now u "Guess". And fish can give another fish ich, a tang can give another fish ich. One sfe may chase around some fish, but another may not. Yer wrong yet again. And mhaines, u have way too many tangs in there. All the same shape tangs too. Im surprised u havent had any fights. That is way too small of a tank. A 55 is a good eel tank, u can probably pull of a sfe and a chainlink or sumthing like that, and maybe a dwarf lion, or a toadfish, but not much else. Not enough swimming space.

you have to get the trigger or the lion not both triggers will eat up a lion and slowly kill it both are nice i prefer triggers they are fast and move around alot which is why I like mine he is always looking for the next meal i would only have one or two tangs in your 100
