Oh my god!!! This is Great!!!!!!(long)
My parents said that I could have a 75g to 90g tank in my room. I'll have to pay for it myself so I won't be getting it anytime soon but who cares!!!!!!!!
 I was thinking about some fish I want and here they are longed horn boxfish yellow tang(a must since I already have one) threadfin butterfly 3 henoichus black and white butterflies raccoon butterfly Volitan Lion Red snowflake eel(I'm getting one of these for sure) queen angel pair of scott's fairy wrasse Harlequin Tuskfish yellow eyed kole tang obviously this won't be a reef, and I won't get all these fish. I my dream list is this yellow tang queen angel 3 henoichus snowflake eel is this way to much, I don't know if I can even keep a queen angel in this tank, and I'm worried that the tang will whip my henoichuses. I really don't know how to stock this tank since alot of these are 6"+ fish and I don't even know how big 75g or 90g tanks are. Also what should I do for a clean up crew, since alot of these guys eat crustacions in the wild? Also how much live rock should I get? anybody know a good plumbing site?(green mariner's, and joacco) As you can see I'm way to excited so I'll stop this post now |

That's a lot of fish that will get larger. You'll have issues with swimming space for some and for others that will quickly outgrow the tank. At least swing for the 90 and take a closer look at the potential growth of each fish and the open reqs of some.

Hi there! I would seriously NOT consider a queen angel in anything less than a 125 and preferably larger. HTH

I've seen queen angels at 24" and larger in the wild. A 75 or even a 90 wouldn't be near large enough. The way you help stop yellow tangs from whipping fish is by adding them to the tank last and small. (well, smaller than your other fish that is.)
HTH JMO keep us updated how it comes. |

I agree with the above. A queen angel will get too big for those tanks. Ditto on the longhorn.
FYI, typical tank sizes 75g - 48x18x20 90g - 48x18x24 HTH
