    I vote for a Chevron tang or an Acanthasuras... one (achilles, powder blue, whitefaced etc)

    as for the angel, you doing coral? By chance... :p wouldnt want to run into what I did.

    I am planning on doing coral, so I'll pick an angel that has a pretty good track record of being nice.

    I don't want to try a powder blue. They are absolutely striking, but too many horror stories. Achilles are beautiful. I really like the yellow belly regal blue tang Saltwater Aquarium Fish for Marine Aquariums: Yellow Belly Regal Blue Tang , the two spot bristletooth tang Saltwater Aquarium Fish for Marine Aquariums: Two Spot Bristletooth Tang, and the chevron. I also really like the caribbean blue tang Saltwater Aquarium Fish for Marine Aquariums: Blue Caribbean Tang
    but I don't know if my tank is big enough.

    You're tank is big enough for the chevron and bristle for the long run, Most tankes over 90G can house a normal sized tang long run solo.

    I am so excited!! I can't wait to have a tang. Sucks I have to wait awhile before getting one, because I am most excited about that addition.

    :) Fish are exciting, out of what you listed personally I would choose the Chevron. get it at a Juvie size, and you get to see it go through its color change.

    I loooove them when they are juveniles, but I don't like the adult coloring as much. I'll have to see!
