NO
I really wouldn't recommend any Tangs in a 55G. As for 2 I would be Strongly against it.
IMO a 75G tank is the minimum tank for some types of tangs, others need much bigger. and in a 75G I would only ever put 1 tang in | |

You really don't want to go through the trouble of upgrading to bigger tank because of the fishes grew bigger. It will be a matter of a few months and it will put stress on you and your fishes.
