    I am setting up a new 180 gallon FOWLR tank, and I am moving my one spot Foxface and Blue Tang from my 65 gallon reef tank (time these guys got some more room :)).

    My question is can these guys handle aggressive fish in a 180 set up? I love both these fish and I would rather have just the two of them in the 180 than add a fish that would cause problems.

    I wanted to add a trigger, wrasse and one large angel in order to have 5 large fish in this set up. If need be maybe I can add something like a blue jaw trigger to keep the aggression level lower.

    Thanks in advance for any help or opinions.

    Thanks for the help. They will definitely be the first two for a while in that set up. I am going to add the other fish slowly.
