Chance of BTA eating a fish, 5%.

Definitely wait to add a BTA for about a year, get your tank established and a good solid feel for what you're doing. You can add the clowns before the BTA. ...

That's what they do! ;)

But, I had a RBTA for over a year and the fish knew to stay away from him. Also, my maroon clowns wouldn't let any fish near him anyway. But, any time you have an anemone...

Well, you would, except the wrasse, goby, blenny, and even occassionally the clowns and cards will munch on the pods, too.

A 90 will support enough pods with no other fish munchin' on 'em. But...

Nix the lion and the butterfly and you'd have a pretty good selection of fish for a 90. I'd probably nix the mandarin, too, though. They're beautiful, but you've got some other fish there that are...
