The Humu may eventually become aggressive as a 75 is a little small for them. If the Humu and the maroon are close to equal in size there shouldn't be too much of a problem, provided they are added together.

Maroons are mean but in the end would be no match for a Huma Huma especially in this size tank..I wouldn't do it

Depends on the fish's personality. In my 75 I've got a yellow tang (3 inches), klunzinger wrasse (4.5 inches), huma huma (3 inches) and a few damsels. The tang is the most aggressive fish in there, but overall everyone gets along fine.

All of them will be relocated to a 180 next summer.
