Would these 3 fish be okay in a 112gallon FOWLR.

I HAVE A 112 GALLON 5FOOT LONG FOWLR TANK. THERES A 3in HUMU HUMU. CAN I PUT VOLITANS AND A PORCUPINE IN THERE. I ALSO HAVE A CINNAMON CLOWN IN THERE AND MY TRIGGER GETS ALONG WITH IT JUST FINE. WOULD THAT BE OKAY. PLEASE DON'T YELL AT ME. BUT STILL ANY HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THE CLOWN WILL BE REMOVED IN ABOUT A WEEK.

I would skip the volitans, because this long fins may get nipped. As for the porc, I've heard of that combo kept together, but they do get really big when full grown. Why are you getting rid of the clownfish?

My clownfish hangs out in the back top part of the tank. he doesn't swim to any other part of the tank thats not by the edge. He's always within an inch of the water level. when I feed him i need to blow the food right over his head so that he could try to grab it or else he won't even try to get it. probably he's blind because he tries to get the food but misses.

i would go with a spiney boxfish puffer over the porc due to its smaller size and hardiness i also do agree with not adding a lion with your trigger as triggers do tend to nip.

In a tank that size, I'd definately say no to a Porc and Volitans. I've had both, in a 200gal. and it still seemed too small. Both will grow relatively fast.
