    hey everyone, ive had my 35 gallon for about eleven months now and im lookin to upgrade. well im goin to upgrade from my 35 gallon to a 100-150 gallon tank. im moving all my fish from my thirty five and one from my other tank into there and i also want to add some tangs and a large angel. the fish that are goin in there definately are a foxface, humu trigger, heniocus butterfly, flame angel, and a lunar wrasse. i was gonna try to get a emperor angel, powder blue tang, powder brown tang, regal tang, yellow tang, and maybe a blonda naso tang. any suggestions??

    That's a lot of fish. Sounds like that would be overstocked, if you added all those fish I mean. Sounds cool though.

    My suggestion: Don't get more than one of the tangs. All of them in one 150G tank is far beyond overstocked.

    The naso tang especially will get very big. I don't know if my 200g tank would house a naso happily for it's entire life.

    I would cut the tangs down to 2- maybe 3 absolute tops.
    Also, is this a reef tank? If so, the trigger, butterfly, and angels will probably give you issues.
