Stock list for 180G
Heres my possible stock list for my 180 im gonna set up. I understand most people dont agree with multiple tangs, but imo, fish dont even belong in glass boxes
Already have 10" fox face rabbit 7" sailfin tang 2" and 3" clarkii clowns want to add clown tang 4"-6" 3 yellow tangs 3"-4" sohal tang 4"-6" pair of mandarins 2"-3" either a convict tang or a orange shoulder 4"-6" I'm prepared for the assault of opinions, and honestly, the YTs are mainly for extra color, i would gladly take these out if i could think of another fish that would do well |

what kind of filtration do you have? i have 6 tangs in my 210 but i have a 100 gallon sump and a 90 gallon fuge. my tangs are no where near the size that you are talking about. i would think that the yellows which are i think the most aggressive would be the trouble makers. your sailfin is 7 inches? i would like to see pictures of him. i love these fish and dont think that i have ever seen one that big. the 6 tangs that i have are yellow, purple, scopas, desjardin sailfin, hippo, and a palani. i would like to add an achilles and a powder blue but i think that those two fish are the most delicate fish and would not survive with what i got. good luck and keep us updated.

I know you're just looking for opinions so here's mine. That's too many big fish for a 180. You already have one 7" Tang and you're talking about adding 6 more, at leat 2 of which (the Sohal and Clown) that have the potential to get really large.
I would suggest dropping 2 of the Yellows and one of the other Tangs. Plus, Yellows are notorius for picking on their own kind. On the Mandarins, you're probably going to need to let that tank mature without many fish for at least 6 months before trying add the Mandy's so the copepod population has a chance to get to what it needs to be to support them.

thanks for the opinions, ive decided to scrap the idea of the yts, theyre just too common
