Stocking Fish

Alright im new to this hobbie and love it. been taking things slow and almost done with cycleing my tank. I own a 75 gallon aquarium right now and iv been starting to pick out my fishes. Here is my idea for my fish only tank. Sounds good or no. I dont want to over stock. Thanks

1.Blue Tang
Kole Tang
Orange spotted Goby.

And i also love half black angel, and Heniochuse Butterfly (sp?)

 

only 1 tang max in a 75

 

Alright so How about a blue tang, Half black dwarf angel and orange spotted goby? would that be fine or no?

 

Sure that will work--just remember only 1 angel of any kind in a tank that size!! P.S. You will love your goby!!

 

I would do a kole in a 75. The blue or hepatus or regal tang or Dory whatever you call it gets BIG, can be tough to keep,and is very sensitive to ick, velvet and HLLE.

I would go with a kole, a dwarf angel, a goby of some sort and a few ditherfish like chromis or the like.

Remember 75 ISN'T really all that much room when these fish get bigger, and more territorial.
Wouldn't be a bad idea to pick up the Marine Fish Pocket Book by Scott Michael

Good luck

Oh and I don't mean to rain on your parade!

 

If you want two tangs in that tank go for it you will be fine. I personally have 4 in my 72 and all is well. Keep in mind over the course of time (maybe years) you will need to upgrade to keep them or trade them in.
