    the only reason I have fish is to feed my corals... if they did not supply such a rich food source for corals in their excrement, I would not even have them!

    Its ALL about the corals... they are what set nice tanks apart from amazing tanks

    So even if I was going to have one fish in my 75, I still can't have a Achilles tang? I'm getting a 300-500g in Jan.

    I would hold off until you get the new tank up and running and cycled.

    I agree. If you're getting your new tank so soon, then just wait. Otherwise you'll have to move the fish to the new tank, which can be quite stressful. So just be patient. I know it's hard!

    I wouldnt put any tang in a 36" tank; especially an achilles, regardless of its size. Just wait till the new tank is established. There are pleanty of "show" fish for any size tank. Work with what you have, not what you will have.
