The tang will out grow your tank. But for now I THINK you're okay. I hope you have a good skimmer, it will be quite a bio load.

As for if the percs and ocellaris, if they are relatively the same size, you should be okay. Just be prepared for a bit of chasing. I've got 4 baby percs (less than 1/2") and 2 adult ocellaris in a 12 gallon, they all get along. I'm just keeping the babies in there until they grow out, and the nano tank is plumbed with main tank.
