    Good evening. Fairly new to all this and got into marine fish-keeping after a visit to the fairground with my son all of four months ago.
    In that time, we've gone from a solitary goldfish to an Aqua Medic 120 gallon tank complete with clown fish, a Regal Tang, a Blue Spotted Tang, Fire Fish, Bicolour Blenny and a few corals...

    Thankyou everyone... I'm working on getting some pictures. The tank seems to be coming along nicely. I'm anticipating keeping more corals than fish - I currently have a pair of Clowns who seem to get along nicely considering they came from different display tanks in the fish shop; a Regal Tang, Blue Spotted Tang who seems to go dark-coloured every time I put my hand in the tank, a nervous Firefish that spends most of its time hiding between rocks and a Bi-colour Blenny that amuses everyone who sees it by the way it 'reverses' into an empty cocoa worm tube.
    I quite like Tangs although I realise mixing too many species is a no-no. The Regal and Blue Spotted get along very well and eventually, I'd like to add a Purple Tang and a Lipstick Tang.
    That's probably as many fish as I'd go for. Do you think they'd be fine together? The tank is an Aqua Medic 120 gallon Anthias with MH lighting and all the trimmings.
    But I got into this hobby to sit and watch a relaxing, serene tank - not a bloodbath - so the last thing I want is expensive Tangs biting chunks out of eachother...
