    Anyone that doesnt get bigger than I would say 7-9 inches. but your tank is wide so i know anything is possible. Anything bigger than that i think needs 6ft. I could be wrong though.

    There's hundreds of species of tangs.

    The genera I would recommend are ctenochaetus (bristletooth tangs), zebrasoma (sailfin tangs), and the acanthurus tangs. The acanthurus are only if you make a path across your diagonal for them to swim through.
